Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi captures that vibe perfectly: a cozy little vacation park in the Ligurian hinterland, with the coast just a short distance away and a landscape that invites you to get outside\u2014on foot, by mountain bike, or just taking it nice and slow. And the view&#8230;  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-9-16 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Overnachten Finale Ligure achterland | Mountainbike, wandelen &amp; surfen | Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi\" width=\"563\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yc4vkMR9UO0?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick Facts<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Where: Magliolo (inland from the coastal towns of Finale Ligure &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/naturetravellab.com\/en\/nature-stay\/ostello-bello-finale-ligure\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"27376\"><strong>Pietra Ligure<\/strong><\/a>)  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accommodations: 6 simple wooden cottages\/chalets for 2+2 people, with air conditioning, a kitchenette, a private bathroom, and Wi-Fi<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amenities: restaurant, bar\/convenience store, fitness center, table tennis, swimming pool with counter-current and hydromassage, solarium, relaxation area, and sauna  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To the beach: about a 10-minute drive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outdoor hotspot: You&#8217;re in or right next to the Finale Outdoor Region, with over 200 MTB trails and a huge variety of routes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi is such a great base<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What appeals to me about places like this is that you don\u2019t have to choose between being active and relaxing. You sleep surrounded by nature, but you still have all the comforts (air conditioning, private bathroom, kitchenette). And as soon as you step outside, the Outdoor life begins. Your accommodations are fairly basic, but you\u2019re right in the middle of the beautiful natural landscape of the Ligurian coast\u2019s hinterland. Plus: you get views of both the sea and the mountains.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For nature lovers, the Ligurian hinterland is especially appealing: it\u2019s cooler than the coast on hot days, smells of Mediterranean vegetation, and you can easily hop onto a trail leading to scenic overlooks. And if you do want to go to the beach? It\u2019s just a short trip away.    <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Staying in wooden bungalows: simple, cozy, and practical<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cottages at Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi are wooden cabins that sleep 2+2 (1 bedroom), with air conditioning, a kitchenette, a bathroom, and Wi-Fi. The living room features a sofa bed for two people and a small kitchenette. You can make your own breakfast or a simple pasta dish, take a quick shower after a hike, and sit outside in the evening with that typical Ligurian feeling that \u201cthe day could certainly last a little longer.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Good to know:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You have your own bathroom (which is nice after a day on the trails or at the beach).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The program also caters to athletes: it explicitly targets people who want to walk, bike, and work out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eat, relax, and recharge: restaurant, relaxation area, sauna, and pool<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You don\u2019t have to cook every day: there\u2019s a small restaurant in the park serving local dishes, and there\u2019s a bar\/convenience store\u2014handy for fresh staples and quick meals. You can have breakfast, lunch, or dinner there.<br\/>What makes Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi especially appealing is its wellness area: a counter-current pool, hydromassage, solarium, and relaxation zone, plus a sauna set in a green setting. Plus, it\u2019s open year-round.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And yes: there&#8217;s also a gym and a ping-pong table.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outdoor adventures start here: hiking, mountain biking, and rock climbing around Pietra Ligure<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mountain Biking in the Finale Outdoor Region<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you look around the MTB world even just a little bit, you&#8217;ll come across the name <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finaleoutdoor.com\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.finaleoutdoor.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Finale Outdoor Region<\/strong><\/a> time and time again. And for good reason: there are over 200 (and according to some sources, even over 250) trails. From \u201cflow\u201d to technical, with that legendary combination of rock, forest, and ocean views. The friendly owners of Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi are happy to help you rent mountain bikes or book a guide.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s my tip if you want to drive in a more sustainable (and eco-friendly) way:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Stay on the official trails and avoid taking shortcuts (erosion is a problem here).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go early or later in the day to avoid the crowds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consider hiring a guide: they\u2019ll not only show you the way, but also help minimize your impact.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trekking and Hiking: Colle del Melogno &amp; Alta Via dei Monti Liguri<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hikers can really let loose here, too. The area is crisscrossed by trails that connect to the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri (AVML), a long-distance trail through the Ligurian mountains. The <a href=\"http:\/\/cailiguria.it\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"cailiguria.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CAI<\/strong><\/a> (Club Alpino Italiano) describes routes that take you through beech forests, among other things, as well as alternative routes leading to scenic viewpoints.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A classic in the area is the region around <strong>Colle del Melogno<\/strong> and the climb toward <strong>Monte Carmo di Loano (1,389 m)<\/strong>, with views that allow you to \u201ctake in\u201d both the mountains and the coast at the same time.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Via Ferrata degli Artisti: Adrenaline with a View<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the mood for something more adventurous? The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferrate365.it\/en\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.ferrate365.it\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Via Ferrata degli Artisti<\/strong><\/a> (near Finale Ligure) is known as a route of moderate difficulty, featuring, among other things, a rope bridge about 40 meters long and plenty of panoramic views. Please note: for via ferrata, proper equipment and experience are essential. Rent a set that includes a helmet from a reliable provider, or go with a guide.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Climbing in Finalese<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finale Ligure is also a climbing classic: the Finale Outdoor Region boasts thousands of routes on cliffs with ocean views and in the hinterland. Even if you don\u2019t climb, it\u2019s fun to walk past a climbing sector: bring a picnic, switch to spectator mode, and you\u2019ve got a free show. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Idea for a (leisurely) 4-day itinerary starting from Tecci\u00f9 di Cuppi<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Day 1: Arrival &amp; Check-in<\/strong><br\/>Check-in, a short walk around the area, followed by the pool and sauna. In the evening, dine at the restaurant or cook a simple meal in your cottage. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Day 2: Trail or hiking day<\/strong><br\/>: MTB in the Finale Outdoor Region or a hike toward Melogno\/the AVML area. Bring your lunch and end the day with a hydromassage.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Day 3: The Sea with a Green Edge<\/strong><br\/>Go to the beach early (it\u2019s quieter), and choose a less crowded stretch of coastline.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Day 4: Underground adventure: Grotte di Toirano<\/strong><br\/>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.toiranogrotte.it\/cgrtdtrn\/hh\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.toiranogrotte.it\/cgrtdtrn\/hh\/index.php\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Grotte di Toirano<\/a><\/strong> are a well-known natural and geological attraction in the region (including caves that have been developed for public access).
