Old, privately owned train station

Small rest stop on the railway line cycle path

The cycle path along the Serraglio Canal follows the waterway through the Venetian countryside, alternating between dirt and asphalt sections. A flat and pleasant route, ideal for cycling away from traffic and discovering a landscape made up of canals, cultivated fields, rows of trees, and small inhabited centers.

Very evocative lagoon area.

The Il Mulino Todori (formerly Pamio) stands between the localities of Contea and Canove. The existence of a mill in this area has been known since 1455. Run by as many as three families, all belonging to the Todori branch of the Pamio family, it had three millstones: for maize, for wheat, and for the waste of corn and cobs. The mill was subsequently rebuilt by the noble Soranzo family, who created the adjoining manor house with the architectural characteristics typical of Venetian villas, of which the central trifora can still be identified. The milling activity definitively ceased in the early 1960s. The mill, today privately owned, is located within the Oasi Todori, a municipal green area inaugurated in 201. Characterized by high biodiversity, it currently occupies an area of 2.5 hectares as a refuge and protection area for various species of flora and fauna, including woodpecker, swallow, robin, blackbird, sparrow, finch, water rail. Among the tree species are field maple, hornbeam, poplar, willow, elder, and dogwood.

The historic center of Dolo is a gem of the Brenta Riviera, a place where water and history merge in a typically Venetian atmosphere. The beating heart of the town is the ancient monumental Squero from the 16th century, once a shipyard for the repair of boats that sailed up the canal, and the nearby Molini, today evocative venues overlooking the river. Strolling along the banks of Isola della Conca, you can breathe in the charm of yesteryear, with the Vincian locks that regulated the flow of water and the imposing bell tower of the Church of San Rocco dominating the panorama. The center unfolds through elegant historic palaces, small bridges, and lively squares that host markets and historic cafes, making Dolo a perfect and dynamic meeting point between the glorious past of the Serenissima and modern daily life.

The former Loreggia station today represents a charming resting point along the Ciclovia Ostiglia-Treviso route, one of the most beloved cycle tourism routes in the Veneto region. Once an operational hub of the military railway that connected Ostiglia to Treviso, the building retains the typical architecture of early 20th-century stations, testifying to the industrial and logistical past of the area. After the railway line was decommissioned, the structure was repurposed as a facility for travelers traversing the route immersed in greenery. Located in a stretch where nature reclaims its space, the former station serves as an ideal connection point between the history of the territory and contemporary slow tourism, offering an atmosphere suspended between railway archaeology and rural landscape.
