Event comments
Wheelchairs and strollers will have much difficulty on this walk due to hilly and uneven streets. Water and restrooms at the start and along the route. Another opportunity for antique collectors to satisfy your "need", as you will walk past many shops selling antiques located in buildings mostly older than the contents; that sometimes refers to the merchants, too.
Rating: 2B, Distance: 5, 10km
