The Euganean Hills Crossing is a trail running event that crosses the volcanic hills of the Euganean Hills near Padua, on a route that follows much of the Alta Via dei Colli Euganei. Runners spend the day on trails, forest tracks and panoramic ridge lines, with technical climbs and fast, stimulating descents. Three distances are on offer: a 42 km main trail with 2,150 m of climb carrying ITRA points, a 22 km half with 1,250 m of climb, and a 2 km mini trail of around 50 m of climb for children. Chip timing, a race packet and staffed refreshment points along the course are part of the package.
