Moconesi

Moconesi is best known in Liguria for its setting in the Fontanabuona Valley, an inland corridor shaped by the Lavagna River. The municipality lies behind Genoa, where the wooded Ligurian Apennines replace the coastal terrain and small settlements follow the valley floor and lower slopes. Ferrada, the municipal seat, and Gattorna belong to this dispersed local pattern. Fontanabuona has long been associated with slate extraction and craftsmanship, an activity that helped define the valley’s economy and supplied a traditional roofing material used across Liguria. More than a resort town, Moconesi reflects the lived-in interior between Genoa and the Ligurian hills.
