The ridge of Mount Zatta on the Alta Via in Liguria

Il crinale del Monte Zatta ed il bellissimo sentiero che lo attraversa

The crest of Monte Zatta and the beautiful path that crosses it.
Travelling along the Alta Via dei monti liguri you also pass by Monte Zatta and its crests.
One of the most beautiful paths I have ever walked (a couple of years ago now).

Photo taken with Canon EOS M100 and lens Tamron 16-300.

I took several photos along the Monte Zatta path and if you want to see them go to this page:

To see in detail the path I took I invite you to go to wikiloc.com.

The summit of the Zatta mountain massif consists of a long wavy ridge, crossed by an easy ridge path. On the outer edges of this ridge are the Zatta di Ponente mountain (1355 m) and the Prato Pinello mountain (1390 m). Between the two ends rises the main peak, the Zatta di Levante mountain (1404 m). The southern slope is steep and stony, while the northern slope, towards the Bocco pass, has a gentler slope and is covered by a large beech forest.

Cappelletta Pass towards Centocroci

Passo della Cappelletta verso Centocroci

Cappelletta Pass towards Centocroci.
Along the road that leads from Liguria to Emilia Romagna and passes through Varese Ligure there are two possibilities to cross (maybe even more): either you cross the Centocroci Pass or you turn towards Albareto and go to the Cappelletta Pass.
The wind turbines modernize the landscape that in summer is sunny and cool while in winter it is often snowy.
Obviously, as the name and photo suggest, there is a small chapel (inside which there is a plaque dedicated to the Alpini and the dead of all wars).
You park the car if you are not so sporty as to arrive on foot or by bike and you go up the ridge.
A spectacle.
I also published another post where I talk more about the wind turbines, here.

The ridge to the east from Punta Baffe

Crinale a Levante da Punta Baffe

The ridge to the east from Punta Baffe.
Several months ago I took this beautiful walk along the path that goes from Riva Trigoso to Punta Baffe. Once I reached the tower I decided to return by climbing a little more and then passing by Villa Manierta.
When I reached the highest point of my route I took this beautiful photo of the first ridge and all those that stand out to the east.
The last one could be that of Punta Mesco.

The Rock called Ferale and the White Cross

Lo Scoglio Ferale e la croce bianca

The Scoglio Ferale and the white cross.
Along the path that goes from Riomaggiore to Portovenere, more or less below the town of Campiglia, there is this large rock with a cross dedicated to the people who go to sea.
One of the many ridges with a few scattered houses that abound in this part of Liguria between the Cinque Terre and the Gulf of Poets.

Finisco questa breve terzina di post con questa foto che a me, devo dire, piace moltissimo.
Non a caso è sul mio desktop in questo momento.
