Liguria has a lot of bicycle tracks and interesting routes, worthy of visiting. 2009 gave the of fans riding a new cycling track. It is also suitable for fans of hiking and jogging.

Ligurian old railway line has been converted into a 24-km cycling track, which stretches along the western coast of the village Ospedaletti to the town of San Lorenzo. After opening in 1872 of the first railway line linking France and Italy, many people began to visit Liguria. But trains passing along the coast has cut off the medieval town from the coast, thereby prevented the development of this beautiful natural area. But now the railroad has been replaced, and people have gained access to the luxurious Riviera beaches, which are located only 5 kilometers from the new cycling track. This part of the Mediterranean is also the largest habitat on the number of whales and dolphins.

In any town or village you will pass are organized various recreational activities for adults and children. You can always stop to rest, swim and lay on a warm sandy beach. This unique route is ideal for active family vacation.

And if you did not plan, but want to ride a bike in any place, you can rent it by paying approximately € 5 per hour of pleasure.

The project for construction of the bicycle track has not yet been completed. By 2010 it is planned to make about 70 kilometers of Ligurian Riviera. So come to Liguria, ride and have pleasure from holiday!
