Poggi

Poggi is a small locality in the province of Imperia, in Liguria, on the Italian Riviera. The area is typical of the Ligurian hinterland, featuring hillsides covered in olive groves and dense Mediterranean vegetation. The region enjoys a mild climate year-round, tempered by its proximity to the Tyrrhenian Sea, making it an appealing destination both in summer and during the quieter months. Imperia, the provincial capital, lies nearby and provides easy access to the coastline, beaches and harbour. The area is well known for its olive oil production, a tradition deeply rooted in the local economy, as well as for its walking trails leading through the hinterland and the surrounding hilltop villages. Food lovers can enjoy Ligurian specialities made with local produce, fresh fish and aromatic herbs. Staying in Poggi offers a chance to combine rural tranquillity with swift access to the attractions of the Ligurian coast, set within an unspoilt natural landscape—ideal for those who enjoy nature, hiking and a more authentic style of travel away from the busier tourist spots.
