Lagoon Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Here you always drive directly along the water, you just have to take the well-developed cycle path out of Grado, but it's worth it 💯

Built in 1593 by the Republic of Venice, Palmanova is a fortress-city preserved in extraordinary condition. A Unesco World Heritage Site since 2017, Palmanova is a splendid model of an ideal Renaissance city and an example of military architecture. Its star shape is unmistakable and its Piazza Grande is not to be missed, a vast parade ground located exactly in the center of the fortress.

Lagoon Cycle Path between Aquileia and Grado

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful and also the final section of the Alpe-Adria cycle path. The last few kilometers of the tour run right through the Grado lagoon. Here the cyclist can finally breathe the sea air. The Grado lagoon is very salty compared to other lagoons. The fauna and flora in the lagoon are very lush. Over 150 different species of birds live in the lagoon alone. Many migratory birds rest in the lagoon in spring and autumn. The variety of different species of mussels and fish is also large. For example, the Capa Tonda and the Venus clam live here, as well as various types of shrimp, sole and perch.

One of the largest of the several hundred islands in the lagoon is called Barbana. On Barbana there is a pilgrimage church with the statue of the Madonna and Child, to which the fishermen of Grado hold a pilgrimage every year on the first Sunday in July, the so-called Perdon de Barbana. There are restaurants on several islands in the lagoon. So if you want to rest in an extraordinary ambience, you have come to the right place.

I'll skip the irony about the vaguely phallic shape of today's ride 😅, but it's started to get hot again here, and luckily I had finished the ride before 12!
The surprise of the day was finding an elderly gentleman on a road bike along the route to Grado, who first asked me for information about the course, then introduced …
