Video: High Above Rapallo: A Funivia Adventure on the Italian Riviera
Funivia Rapallo-Montallegro takes you from the Italian Riviera resort up to Santuario Basilica Nostra Signora di Montallegro, a basilica finished in 1559. The views of the Golfo del Tigullio are spectacular. A five minute walk from the train station gets you to the Funivia station, so you don't even need a car for this counrtyside excursion.
Albergo "Casa del Pellegrino", featured in the video has not only good views, but a restaurant recommended by the personel on the aerial tramway. There are many hiking trails in the area; it's a way those without a car can get a few day of countrside into the itinerary.
