Starting from the Civic Library ‘R.Deaglio’ in the town centre, guided by the herbologist, forager and environmental hiking guide Laura Brattel, we’ll discover Alassio’s past by consulting local historical books. From here, we will walk to the Santa Croce promontory. If you wish, you can bring a book and choose a sentence to read at the end of the hike; a flower will be given to place in the book.
