Start the new year by slowing down, breathing deeply, and reconnecting with nature.
On 1 January 2026, we invite you to a rejuvenating excursion to Rocca di Perti, one of Liguria’s most evocative hilltop sites, suspended between sky, stone, and history. This gentle hike is designed as a symbolic and physical fresh start: moving the body, clearing the mind, and welcoming the year with intention.
The trail winds through Mediterranean vegetation, ancient paths, and panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Val Maremola. As we ascend toward the medieval ruins of Rocca di Perti, the landscape opens up—rock formations sculpted by time, wide horizons, and a profound sense of quiet that feels especially powerful on the first morning of the year.
The walk will be at a relaxed pace, suitable for anyone with a basic level of fitness. Along the way, we will pause to observe the landscape, breathe, and take in the atmosphere of this timeless place. At the top, the ruins offer the perfect setting for a short moment of reflection: leaving behind what no longer serves us and setting intentions for the year ahead.
This is not just a hike, but a ritual of renewal—combining movement, nature, history, and presence.
