Ride the funicular up to the hilltop sanctuary for sweeping Ligurian coastline views most passengers never see, paired with a quiet visit to the church.
What to expect
The cabin lifts off from a station a short walk from the harbor and climbs steeply over olive terraces. At the top, the 16th-century sanctuary holds a venerated icon and a small museum of ex-votos. Walk the ridge path a little further for an unobstructed panorama of the entire Tigullio Gulf.

Good to know
Runs roughly every 30 minutes; go up early before haze sets in, and confirm the return schedule against your all-aboard time since it doesn't run continuously.
