Overview

Genoa had the second largest city wall in the world, after the Chinese one, but no one knows, not even the Genoese people. Twenty kilometers of walls around which various fortifications have been built. Getting to know these forts is not easy, they are not very promoted and it is not easy to find someone to take you there.
In this wonderful trek of about 15 km, the tourist will have the opportunity, accompanied by a professional guide, to delve into the history of Genoa and to discover these fortifications that still stand on the hills of the city.
