Soldano

Soldano is a small village in the hinterland of the Province of Imperia, in Liguria, Italy, nestled in the Nervia valley not far from Dolceacqua and the Bordighera coastline. Like many hilltop villages in this part of Liguria, it features a traditional layout of narrow lanes and closely packed stone houses, with open views over hills covered in olive groves. The local economy remains tied to agriculture, particularly olive and vine cultivation, characteristic of western Liguria. The mild Mediterranean climate, pleasant throughout the year, makes it well suited to walks through the surrounding countryside and visits to nearby villages such as Dolceacqua, known for its medieval bridge and Doria castle. The coast is only around twenty minutes away by car, making it easy to combine a quiet inland stay with trips to the beaches of the Riviera dei Fiori. Soldano suits travellers looking for a peaceful, rural experience away from the busier coastal resorts, appreciated for its authenticity, walking trails and unspoiled natural surroundings typical of the Imperia hinterland.
