The upper city always has its charm, every time I discover something new or interesting.

I live at the foot of the steps. To go to the Upper Town I never take the funicular but I go on foot. Sometimes I take a walk up the steps, continuing on via Tre Armi until the descent of the Santa Lucia steps, then, a little further on I go back up via Tre Armi through the vicolo del paradiso, a few more meters on via Tre Armi and I take a variant of the vicolo del Paradiso and I find myself towards the swimming pools. At that point I go back up with via Fontanabloro to via Tre Armi. I move towards the restaurant La Marianna in Colle Aperto, through the Upper Town via Bartolomeo Colleoni until Porta San Giacomo, finally, I continue on the viale delle mura until the starting point, my house. Nice walk of about an hour and a half at my slow pace.

White marble gate and stone viaduct built as part of the former city wall with a view over the plain. Right next to the gate there is a great running route in both directions along the old city wall. You will meet lots of other runners early in the morning.
