From the heart of historical Florence we will run along the river through the typical ancient narrow streets of the city center. Starting from Ponte Vecchio with the small gold shops that still today surrounds the bridge, we run east following the river with the beautiful scenery of the colourfull facades reflecting in the water.
Thereafter we run through the park of Anconella, the ancient water treatment plant and on a nice bike path just by the river, where is easy to see waterfowls until we reach the nice historical mill of Rovezzano with a hidden surprise. A running tour that combines the history of Florence with the green side of this gem of an Italian city.
A break of peace and reflection. In the early morning you can enjoy the sunrise over the river or in late afternoon the sunset with the old town skyline in front of it. This tour is suitable for every kind of runner and the course is all flat and easy.
The tour duration is up to your personal pace, but just to have and idea it usually takes from 1.5 to almost 2 hours.
This tour is suitable for extra km add-on see below.
