Sassello

Sassello lies in the upper valley of the Orba River, where wooded Apennine slopes of the Beigua Regional Nature Park rise around the town. This inland part of Liguria belongs to the Beigua UNESCO Global Geopark, a territory shaped by the meeting of Mediterranean and Alpine environments. Sassello is closely associated with amaretti, soft almond biscuits that remain central to its local food tradition. Its historic centre, with narrow streets and arcaded passages, has the character of a Ligurian mountain settlement rather than a coastal resort. Forests and upland roads lead into the quieter interior of the Ligurian Apennines.
