Let’s go\u00a0discovering a true Italian excellence: the Ligurian valley that extends between Sestri Levante and the Cinque Terre, and has been pointing to the organic since the late 90’s. Here is Val di Vara, the most organic valley in Italy.<\/h2>\n

Val di Vara<\/strong> is the largest valley in Liguria<\/strong>, and here, among evocative round villages and green pastures, most\u00a0cultivations are organic<\/strong>, for an unmatched quality of life.<\/p>\n

Everything started in the nineties when the mayor of Varese Ligure, Maurizio Caranza, decided to focus on organic<\/strong> agriculture\u00a0and sustainability<\/strong>. So, in 1999, Varese Ligure<\/strong> is the first municipality of Europe\u00a0to obtain environmental quality certification, and in the same years the whole valley begins a path of conversion to organic agriculture. In 2006 the Biodistretto della Val di Vara<\/strong> was born, thus consolidating this unique reality, which has created a successful brand both for the quality of life of its inhabitants and for the tourist offer. In the 345 square kilometers of Val di Vara, which includes the seven municipalities<\/strong> of Varese Ligure, Maissana, Carro, Carrodano, Zignago, Sesta Godano and Rocchetta Vara, there are about 80<\/strong>\u00a0Organic<\/strong> Farm<\/strong>, largely zootechnical, which have made sustainable management of resources<\/strong> and the promotion<\/strong> of the territory<\/strong> their\u00a0vocation.<\/p>\n

Val di Vara’s River<\/h2>\n

\"Destination
\nThe valley is born around the\u00a0longest river<\/strong> of Liguria, which for almost 60 kilometers crosses this\u00a0green area, descending from Mount Zatta<\/strong> and then throwing itself into the Magra river through lush forests<\/strong> and rocky walls. Over the years, Vara River with its crystal clear waters<\/strong> has become one of the most popular waterways among the\u00a0lovers of river sports<\/strong> across Europe.<\/p>\n
