Stazzano is well located in relation to the infrastructure in the area: there's a train station and the motorway to Milan, Genoa, Turin and Piacenza passes nearby (1km) which means that in one hour you can get to either the Mediterranean Sea or to Milan's fashion mecca. It is quite a traditional Italian village without too much fuss. The landscape becomes interesting as soon as you move up the mountains a bit more. If you choose to stay here then you can visit the castles Gavi and Novi Ligure, and the wineries of Gavi and Tassarolo.
