Sport and nature

The contrast between the blue sea and the green hills creates a wonderful coloured scenery. The deep respect for the environment allowed the nature to impose in Bibbona his full sovereignty, certified by the “Sails of Legambiente”. Long beaches, sweet-smelling paths of the magnificent pinewood, our wide countryside, will take you by the hand and will taking you in a full immersion in the soul…

Birthplace of the famous Olympic cycling-champion Paolo Bettini, who began just in this places his training, Bibbona became an ideal destination for cycling. A lot of teams choose, in fact, to come to train just in this places, thanks to the particularly mild climate and to the particular conformation of the territory, that offers an interesting variety of tracks. Walking through the narrow alley of Bibbona and arriving behind the village opens a grandiose landscape stretched in the wide surrounding countryside. Turning down San Rocco street is possible to notice on the left the body of an old weather-cock of ancient origins quite rare in this area.
