Beautiful landscape, especially in the last section. Fairly busy. Good training. Definitely needs leg to keep an interesting pace. Done in August afternoon, better than morning😅.

Bel paesaggio soprattutto nell'ultimo tratto. Abbastanza trafficata. Buon allenamento. Sicuramente serve gamba per tenere un ritmo interessante. Fatta di agosto pomeriggio, meglio di mattina😅
