In the first part of the stage you cross the town outskirts, and you must pay attention between Montale and the bridge on the Nure river, because you must walk on the busy road Via Emilia.

The stage is challenging for the lenght and for the long stretches of road on asphalt. 

Bar and water in Ponte Nure, water in Paderna Castle.
