Cần Quan Tâm
Fondamenta Zattere
Meeting Point: Zattere, Venice: Our journey begins at Zattere, the historic waterfront promenade in Dorsoduro, known for its stunning views of Giudecca Island and Palladio’s Church of the Redentore. This location was once the landing point for logs transported via the Brenta River to Venice, giving the area its name ("Zattere" means rafts in Italian).
Water Bus to Fusina – Gateway to the Brenta Riviera: A scenic vaporetto ride takes us from Venice to Fusina, historically the river port where travelers switched from Venetian boats to river barges. The Brenta was once the preferred summer retreat route of Venetian nobility, who traveled on the Burchiello, an elegant barge pulled by horses along the riverbanks. Once in Fusina, we'll pick up our bikes and begin the ride along the Brenta River, following the same path taken by Venetian aristocrats for centuries.
