The Arroscia area ranges over thousand meters of SAN BERNARDO DI MENDATICA, passing through the crossroad of PIEVE DI TECO.
The forests of Alta Valle Arroscia dominate the landscape, among which the luxuriant beech wood of the REZZO wood stands out. Starting point for panoramic excursions to Mongioje or Saccarello, here is the only ski resort of the West Liguria, MONESI, severely affected by the flood of 2016, and it is here that, next to Mendatica, the waterfalls of Arroscia can be admired.
The Valley is also rich in artistic and ethnographic routes, such as the widespread museum system “The Faces of Ubagu”, which combines all the 11 municipalities.
Gastronomy is linked to sheep farming, especially to the “white cuisine” based on poor and nutritious ingredients that recall the paths of the transhumance. Among the specialties, the brussü, the fermented ricotta and the Ormeasco, an altitude red wine produced in PORNASSIO, MONTEGROSSO PIAN LATTE, COSIO D’ARROSCIA and MENDATICA. The Valley includes AQUILA D’ARROSCIA, ARMO, BORGHETTO D’ARROSCIA and VESSALICO.
