There are two ways out of Verdanturf; to the east is {{rt|117|Hoenn}} towards [[Mauville City]], and to the north is the [[Rusturf Tunnel]], which was being constructed to link {{ci|Rustboro}} and Verdanturf. However, the construction disturbed the local {{p|Whismur}} who lived in the tunnel, and so it was canceled. [[Wanda]]'s boyfriend tried to dig the tunnel himself, but was unable to do it. After the {{player}} gets the {{Badge|Dynamo}}, he or she can use {{m|Rock Smash}} to complete the tunnel and open a path to {{rt|116|Hoenn}}.

==Trivia==
* The [[Poké Mart]] of this town is the only one in Hoenn where {{ball|Nest}}s can be purchased.
* In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, a girl in the [[Poké Mart]] sings a short song when talked to, which goes: ''Ball, Ball, {{ball|Nest}}. ♪ Ball, Ball, {{ball|Luxury}}. ♪'' Afterwards, she says that she learned the song from "a strange person in red clothes" when she visited the [[Kalos]] region once. This is likely a reference to the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}} who can be battled at the [[Poké Ball Factory]] in {{g|X and Y}} and sings a similar song before the battle.
* Verdanturf's Japanese motto is {{tt|くさの においの かぜふく こうげん|Kusa no nioi no kaze fuku kougen}} ''"The highlands where the grass-scented wind blows"''.
