Casa di paese in Località Vercioglio s.n.c, Plodio,

The cluster lies in the Ligurian Apennines, in the Bormida valley system between wooded ridges and low passes toward the coast. The Bormida di Millesimo runs through this part of the valley. The Cadibona pass area is nearby, marking the transition between the Alps and the Apennines. The nearest larger centres are Cairo Montenotte and Savona; Cairo provides everyday services and rail connections, while Savona is the provincial city and port on the Ligurian coast. This area is known for chestnut woods, mixed forest and small inland villages tied to the old road routes between the coast and Piedmont.
