The town of Abano Terme is located at the foothills of the Euganean Hills of volcanic origins. The Euganean Hills regional park provides an extraordinary array of opportunities to spend a few hours or full days immersed in nature, among green rest areas in the middle of long hiking trails where it is possible to enjoy just the sounds of nature. A few kilometers from Abano one can also find beautiful golf courses surrounded by the beauty of the hills such as Montecchia golf club and Frassanelle golf club. In April, in addition, two major sport events take place: the Padua marathon that crosses the spa area and the youth international soccer tournament  of Abano.
