Wonderful walk through Verona on a day when the temperature is 38°C.



Fortunately, the only climb is the one up the stairs at Piazza del Fore.



Verona has a very rich history with various outside influences and it is beautiful to walk around here. The story of Romeo and Juliet also took place here.

Walk through Zandobbio via the northeast side of the village.

A beautiful, but tiring trip Southwest of Zandobbio. My first plan was to cycle northeast of Zandobbio, but the S1 paths uphill are not for me. Down I have less trouble with it 😁, but I also had to pay attention on the washed out S1 trails.

Short morning walk through Zandobbio.



Along the way we walked past the local cemetery with the most impressive mausoleums.

The trip is mostly on asphalt, but with everything there is to see, I didn't find that a problem. Along the way you will come across a number of tunnels that… read more
