A beautiful running route over the rooftops of Bolzano. The ascents and descents are not steep and pleasant for running.

Wings for Life Run Strecke 05.05.2024 by Tobias

Schöne Runde, wenn man mal nicht nur am Tegernseeufer hin und wieder zurück laufen will. Nicht nur an einem Tag im Jahr zu empfehlen und dem Titel entsprechend relativ flach und gut zu laufen.
