La Panchina di Montemarcello

Making your way along the winding road leading to the village of Montemarcello, there is a small open promontory point with sweeping views of the Bay of La Spezia. It’s a sharp 300 meters down to the next level of land before it drops off again to hit the Mediterranean.

We love walking the old Roman trail that leads there with Lulu. We sit on the bench to enjoy the view, to breathe in the fresh air, to reflect on what a very nice life we have and to just be together.

Then we make our way to the village for our favorite “second breakfast” of the day. Not a bad way to start the weekend.
