Maggiorasca is part of the Aveto Regional Natural Park and has a rare high-altitude flora: on the basalt rocks grow alpine species and Apennine endemics, such as Primula marginata and Armeria marginata. Until about 1970 there was a ski lift here: the foundations of two pylons remain.<\/p>\n<p>The statue dates from 1947: in thanks for the protection given to the valley during the war, a bronze Our Lady of Guadalupe was placed on the top, the work of Gaetano Olivari. Every 27 August a pilgrimage climbs up to it.<\/p>\n<h2>Three ways up<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-09-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-63015\" alt=\"La stazione della seggiovia per il Prato della Cipolla\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-09-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-09-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-09-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-09-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-09.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3>By chairlift, from Rocca d&#8217;Aveto<\/h3>\n<p>This is the shortest way. From the Rocca d&#8217;Aveto car park the chairlift climbs to Prato della Cipolla, where there is a hut with a restaurant; a second section goes to Monte Bue (about 1,775 m). From Bue you follow the ridge to Maggiorasca, passing the Costazza saddle (1,677 m). The Inalto trip report gives 2 hours 45 to 3 hours for the full loop, with about 200 metres of climbing, and rates it E (hiking): the stretch after the summit is poorly marked. A short detour leads to Lago Nero, a small pond.<\/p>\n<p>This route works only with the lifts open. The operator (Ski Area Santo Stefano d&#8217;Aveto) publishes the summer calendar as an image and we found no firm date for 2026-27: call 366 4227837 before you go. The fare for the ride is not confirmed.<\/p>\n<h3>On foot, from Rocca d&#8217;Aveto<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-10-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-63016\" alt=\"Monte Nero e Monte Bue visti dalla cima del Maggiorasca\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-10-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-10.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>If the chairlift is closed, the same trip is done on foot: the Inalto report estimates about 450 metres more up to the saddle between Bue and Maggiorasca, and about 2 hours 15 more there and back. Other reports describe a long loop from Rocca d&#8217;Aveto via Monte Roncalla, Monte Nero and Passo della Lepre: over 16 km and almost 1,000 metres of climbing, for fit hikers. For shoes and gear see below.<\/p>\n<h3>From the village, via Prato della Cipolla<\/h3>\n<p>From Santo Stefano d&#8217;Aveto there is a loop via Prato della Cipolla: according to Komoot it is about 11 km with 780 m of climbing, 4 hours 40 minutes, of medium difficulty. The figure is indicative and does not come from an official source: check paths and waymarks on site or with the Aveto Park (0185 340311).<\/p>\n<h2>Maggiorasca in winter<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-11-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-63017\" alt=\"Il Monte Maggiorasca innevato visto da Alpicella d&#039;Aveto\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-11-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-11-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-11-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-11-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/italian-riviera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/santo-stefano-daveto-foto-11.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>With snow, Maggiorasca becomes a snowshoe and ski mountaineering goal, and Prato della Cipolla is the starting point for skiers. At the end of January 2026, after snowfalls, on the weekend of 31 January and 1 February both chairlifts, the drag lift and the moving carpet were open, with pistes above 1,600 metres and hours from 9 to 16:30. But snow is not always enough: openings are announced on the Facebook page &#8220;Impianti Val d&#8217;Aveto&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>In winter the summit is exposed to wind and fog, and snow hides the paths. Go only in stable weather, check the ARPAL alert and take micro-spikes or snowshoes according to conditions. There are also climbing routes on the mountain, summer and winter, but they are for equipped climbers.<\/p>\n<h2>What to bring and when to avoid it<\/h2>\n<p>Hiking shoes, a windproof jacket and extra layers even in summer: at 1,800 metres the temperature changes quickly and fog arrives without warning. Bring water and a Park map. Avoid Maggiorasca in thunderstorms or thick fog, and if you count on the chairlift for the return, ask first about the time of the last ride.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about Monte Maggiorasca<\/h2>\n<p><strong>How high is Monte Maggiorasca?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1,804 metres: it is the highest peak of the Ligurian Apennines and of the province of Genoa.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you go up by chairlift?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, when the lifts are open: from Rocca d&#8217;Aveto to Prato della Cipolla and then to Monte Bue.
