Finale Ligure

Ligurien · Best time: Year-round · All levels

Over 200 mountain bike trails between the coast and the hinterland — enduro, all mountain, cross country and e-MTB through valleys, plateaus, woodland and Mediterranean scrub. Shuttle uplift and guided tours are organised locally, and trail status is published continuously because individual trails close for maintenance or roadworks.
