ORCO FEGLINO – SAN ROCCO

ITINERARY: FEGLINO – PIAN MARINO – SAN ROCCO – FEGLINO

By car (from Finale Ligure’s train station FF SS): you take the national road Aurelia (Strada Statale 1) in the direction of Savona and you turn left at the first crossroad (200 m after the roundabout). You drive now on the road SP27 (Street Domenico Brunenghi) for about 1,3 Km until you reach Finalborgo. Here you turn right joining the street SP27 towards “Feglino” and going on for about 5,2 Km to reach the city center of Feglino.  At this point (the square is called “Piazza Durante”, there is a large crossroad: turn left and then left again to reach the parking area (not far away from a football field).

Duration: 1 h 30 min    Length: 4,5 Km      Elevation gain: 196 m

The itinerary starts downhill, turning right. You pass the football field and you keep following the narrow paved road for about 1 Km until you finally arrive to the unpaved trail.

Trail mark: yellow mark

The trail is well signaled and goes uphill.

Just after the first 200 m, you will have to turn left, to join a smaller trail. In this stretch you are going to go always uphill and you are going to see the remains of an ancient stone shelter, just a few meters before you reach another sequence of two crossroads: turn left at the first one (direction “Pian Marino”) and go straight on at the second one to reach, in about 200 m, the field of “Pian Marino”, where you can have a break.

Now you have to go back to the last fork and take the new trail on your left side.

Here, the trail mark changes.

Trail mark: two red balls

The trail is well signaled and it goes uphill.

From now on, you need to be very careful. This stretch is in fact very popular among the bikers.

The very first part of the trail goes up for about 700 m and ends into a larger trail: if you go straight on this trail you will reach, in no more than 10 minutes, the “Church of San Rocco”; if you go n your right hand side, this trail is going to lead you to the starting point (1,5 Km). Anyway , this last stretch might be very dangerous, due to the bikers, and we recommend you to go back to your car just  turning back and following your steps back or,  at least, to be very, very, very careful if you decide to proceed this way.

(if you want to continue on this new trail, the trail mark changes into a red cross. You are going to reach an unpaved road where you will have to turn left and to go on for about 600 m to arrive to the paved road and the starting point).

(At the end of the itinerary, it is possible to have a big and good meal in the restaurant “Da Anna” in Feglino)
