Excursión ciclista de un día de Padua a Mestre

This relaxing ride takes you from the charming university city of Padua to bustling Mestre, right on the doorstep of Venice. Starting in Padua, you’re in one of Italy’s oldest cities—famous for its beautiful piazzas, historic cafés, and the stunning Basilica of Saint Anthony. Heading east, you’ll pedal for about 45 km on mostly flat terrain, passing through stretches of quiet roads and scenic paths, perfect for soaking in the countryside.

Most of the route is asphalt and paved, so you’re in for a smooth cruise with very gentle elevation changes—just enough to stretch your legs! Along the way, you might catch glimpses of tranquil canals and fields before rolling into Mestre, a modern city that acts as the mainland gateway to Venice. It’s a great spot to grab a spritz and plan your visit to the iconic floating city just across the lagoon. Safe travels and enjoy the ride!
