Arena verde Castel Quena Dosso Molino Villa
Circular excursion of 6.5 km with an uphill difference in height of about 350 meters, develops in the heart of the Negrar Valley of Valpolicella with departure and arrival at Arena Verde
The route is mixed and very interesting you start from Arena Verde Parking Eurospin walk along Via Sandro Pertini until the end there are stairs that you climb cross a tiny stream and enter in a path that passes through the vineyards that at the end cross a dirt road turn left and continue slightly uphill until you reach Villa here are the directions to continue towards Vigolo and Castel then turn right and arrive in Vigolo al Capitello dedicated to San Vincenzo keep left and climb towards Castel
