WHY THIS HIKE
From Levanto to Framura
A seaside trek that captivates from the first step to the last. From Levanto to Framura, passing through Bonassola and the evocative Salto della Lepre (Hare's Leap), this excursion takes us along one of the most beautiful and scenic stretches of the Ligurian Riviera, amidst the scent of Mediterranean scrub, breathtaking views, and paths overlooking the blue sea.

The experience
We start from the sea of Levanto, cross the colors and relaxed atmosphere of Bonassola, and continue towards the most authentic and panoramic corners of Framura, in an itinerary suitable for everyone but capable of providing genuine emotions. Unmissable is the detour to the Salto della Lepre, a natural terrace suspended over the sea that offers a spectacular view and one of those stops that Guidders will remember for a long time.
The return journey makes this experience even more special: we will in fact walk on the splendid cycle path created from the old railway line, through tunnels carved into the rock and sudden openings onto the sea. A perfect excursion for those who want to experience the most beautiful Liguria, with lightness, panoramic views, and all the good energy of the Guidders community. 🧡

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Manuel, an environmental hiking guide and an official guide of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennine National Park. I love walking among woods, hidden streams and mountain views, and I like turning every outing into an experience made of nature, stories and sharing: the landscape is half the job, the other half is telling it. For me trekking is discovery, silence and wonder. You don't need to go far, you need to go slowly. Step by step, together on the trail. 🥾🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
