Where the crisp air of the mountains meets the salty air of the Golfo. 

Uscio alive, charming, animated. Uscio in a happy location, turned towards that sea of Golfo Paradiso that mitigates its climate extremes both in winter and in summer. Surrounded by woods, it offers its guests the pleasure  of a biting air that vivifies and stimulates. One is always willing to go back. This is the reason why in 1906 Carlo Arnaldi established his Colonia (Health Resort) in this area.

Uscio is proud of its past, so ancient to get lost in the traces of pre-history, but it does not loiter behind. Already a set passage in the past days for the trade between Fontanabuona and the coast, today Uscio finds itself on a tourist itinerary that links the liveliness of the coast to the quiet of the hills and offers an easy access to peaceful sojourns and pleasant traditional cooking. Characteristic are the “trofie matte”, made with chestnut flour.

The important Romanesque Pieve, dating back to the XII century, gives evidence, with its Lombard style and its meaningful naming after Sant’Ambrogio, both to its ancient dependence thereto as well as its supremacy over the territory. To be seen, among other things, the fifteenth century beautiful wooden polychrome statue. On mount Borgo there are traces of the most ancient terraced land strip with dry-stone walls (X century B.C.) that characterized thereafter the Ligurian landscape.
