The Young Mountain, section of Verona, organizes on March 29 the 53rd edition of the non-competitive recreational event at a free pace Four Steps of Spring: open to everyone, on routes of 7, 11, and 20 km that wind through the hills of Verona in Avesa, Quinzano, and the Eremo di San Rocchetto.
This year's novelty is the special barrier-free route of 2.8 km.
A true excursion in the nature surrounding the city of Verona: blooming cherry trees, olive groves and vines, small churches and breathtaking views of the historic center of the city will accompany participants throughout the route.
This event, besides aiming to raise awareness towards emergency situations, also intends to encourage the rediscovery of nature and promote human connections.
The departure is free and is set from 8 AM to 10 AM from the Avesani Sports Center.
