The third edition of FLOW Outdoor Festival by VIBRAM wrapped up today: another successful edition for an event that really embraces the whole sport offer of Finale and surrounding region.
The noise of the bikes in the narrow alleys of town; the chalk over the hands of the climbers; the grin of all those who are enjoying themselves while practising the sport they love; the cheering from the spectators, trackside at the events: plenty of moments and experiences to choose from, while describing the eventful weekend of the 2018 edition of FLOW OUTDOOR FESTIVAL by VIBRAM.
Four days during which Finale and the local community have been giving their warmest welcome to sport enthusiasts, athletes, and the general public, offering everyone the chance of experiencing first-hand their outdoors. How? Choosing from more than 25 activities on offer, or participating in a mountain biking, rock climbing or trail running competition in an extraordinary natural setting made of crags, crystalline sea, coasts, inland areas, trails to ride and run.
