E-MTB Heritage Tour Uncovers Genoa’s Fortified Hills and Panoramic History
A guided e-mountain bike experience through Genoa is offering visitors a dynamic way to explore the city’s historic defensive network, where centuries of military architecture meet rugged natural landscapes. The tour follows sections of the ancient fort system built to protect the Republic of Genoa, often referred to as “La Superba,” during a period of political expansion and cultural growth across Europe.
Riders traverse forested trails and ridgelines that connect key defensive structures such as Forte Sperone and Forte Begato. These landmarks form part of one of the longest urban fortification systems in Europe, offering a striking blend of historical architecture and natural surroundings high above the city.
Covering approximately twelve kilometers of mixed terrain, the route provides continuous panoramic views of Genoa’s urban expanse and its coastal shoreline. Participants ride full-suspension e-mountain bikes designed for comfort and stability, allowing them to navigate forest paths, climbs, and ridgelines while absorbing the surrounding scenery.
Throughout the journey, professional guides introduce participants to essential mountain biking techniques tailored to varying skill levels, ensuring both safety and engagement. By combining historical storytelling, physical activity, and elevated viewpoints, the tour presents a comprehensive perspective on Genoa’s fortified past and its dramatic hillside geography.

Customer Reviews
Eerie yet fascinating atmosphere for those who appreciate the beauty of a raw abandoned structure. I wish I had prepared better beforehand to spend more hours exploring; it’s a massive complex. It appears to be closed off from the front entrance, but there are two other ways to enter if you search around the edge of the complex. Beware of ticks! I found one on my leg during the journey back to the city. Wear long pants and good shoes. I was only there during the day, but I got the feeling that it’s a place you want to make a priority to leave well before dark as wild boars could be present in the area - and maybe even strange people? judging by the unfortunate trash left behind in some of the rooms.
Really cool abandoned historical fort, worth visiting if you are nearby.
We climbed 3 hours on foot, but it was worth it. you can enter the territory freely, it is interesting to walk in the fortress. 5 stars for amazing view. by road you can reach the downtown .
