In Val Borbera, border land

The Val Borbera, nestled between four regions, is an enchanting and unspoilt place of extraordinary natural beauty.

Starting from Pertuso with its scenic narrows, a river gorge of extraordinary naturalistic value of the Borbera stream, a canyon between steep walls and emerald waters with breakfast in the Boscopiano picnic area. We arrive towards Vendersi, a hamlet of Albera Ligure, the village of the Scarecrows. In this village, thanks to the ingenious work of some inhabitants, these dummies made from recycled materials and accessories have appeared, making the atmosphere joyful and magical. There are more than 70 scarecrows scattered around the village and each of them has a name and a story inspired by the very people who once lived there. At the top of the village, you will be greeted by a fragrant lavender field made even more fascinating by the naturalistic context in which it is set. Possibility of purchasing soaps and products made from the lavender cultivated here.
