Garessio 2000. Sci con vista mare sul colle Casotto
Garessio 2000 si trova alla Colla di Casotto, a circa 13 km dal centro di Garessio, in una posizione particolare delle Alpi Liguri. La stazione domina la Val Casotto e l’Alta Val Tanaro e, dalla sommità del Monte Berlino, regala un panorama che nelle giornate più limpide raggiunge il Mar Ligure e, in condizioni eccezionali, persino la Corsica. È proprio questo incontro tra montagna e mare l’elemento più caratteristico del comprensorio.
