How to get there: from Gavi Ligure (exit at Arquata Vignole Borbera A7 Milan-Genoa) after having passed the “Ford” there is steep street on your right hand side.
From Voltaggio (exit at Busalla A7 Milan-Genoa) pass Carrosio and go towards Bosio.
From Ovada cross the street for Mornese and from Genoa or Campo Ligure use the Via delle Capanne di Marcarolo.
The origins of Bosio date back to Roman times during the splendid economic period of Libarna.
The first news of the Spessa area dates back to a 1256 document. From here the slow movement of the small rural community favored the settlements towards the adjacent territories.
This is why various resting places were created along the route that from Genoa led to the Oltregiogo.
The history of the small town followed the path of the Parodi and it separated from the town in order to become independent in 1948.
The natural patrimony that you will find in Bosio is breathtaking.
It is the home of the Natural Park delle Capanne di Marcarolo and from Mount Tobbio there is the impressive waterworks of Genoa.
The beautiful Gorzente Lakes delight the sight of its passionate visitors that can take pleasure in its enchanting landscape, which is also offered by the Bruno, Budana, and Lungo Lakes. The Parish Church is dedicated to St. Peter and St. Marziano, while the Church of St. Steven and Santa Croce contain awesome paintings.
The small chapel of the Beata Vergine is a mystical place of cult since 1897. The old chestnut trees extend in a sublime frame that marks its traditional agricultural past. The paths of the Capanne di Marcarolo attract tourists who are nature lovers. |
