WHY VERONA…

Verona is a dream destination for HYROX-ers looking for a mix of adventure, history, and vibrant Italian culture. While famous for its connection to Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Verona offers much more than just romance—it’s a city full of exciting experiences, outdoor activities and stunning scenery.

For adventure seekers, climbing Torre dei Lamberti is a must. This 84-metre tower provides breath-taking panoramic views of the city and the 368-step climb is a rewarding challenge. Another great spot for an active exploration is Castel San Pietro, where a short but steep hike leads to an incredible viewpoint overlooking the Adige River and Verona’s picturesque rooftops.

Cycling is an excellent way to explore Verona’s historic streets and nearby countryside. Rent a bike and ride along the Adige River, or take a day trip to Lake Garda, just a short train ride away. Here, you can try windsurfing, paddleboarding, or even paragliding for an adrenaline rush.

For those who enjoy hiking, the nearby Valpolicella wine region offers beautiful vineyard trails and rolling hills. You can trek through scenic landscapes while stopping at local wineries for a tasting experience.

In the evening, experience Verona’s energetic nightlife in Piazza delle Erbe, where lively bars and cafes fill the historic square. If you visit in summer, don’t miss an opera performance at the Arena di Verona, a Roman amphitheatre that hosts unforgettable open-air shows.

With its mix of outdoor adventure, rich history and dynamic atmosphere, Verona is the perfect destination for HYROX-ers who love to stay active while immersing themselves in Italian culture. Whether climbing towers, cycling riverside paths, or hiking through vineyards, there’s always something exciting to do in this charming city.
