This trip through the Prosecco hills and the Venetian Lagoon is done exclusively on electric-assist bicycles (e-bikes) to ensure a comfortable and consistent pace for the entire group in this region of Veneto, where hills, rivers, and the lagoon alternate. The group must wait for one another and ride together. E-bikes are provided and rented on-site for all participants, ensuring a smooth start and an optimal group experience on local roads. It is not possible to participate with your own bike, whether electric or regular. Thanks to the e-bikes, every day becomes an accessible pleasure, allowing you to fully enjoy the landscapes of the Veneto region—from the Prosecco hills to the Euganean Hills and on to the Po Delta—without logistical worries or excessive physical demands.
From the foot of Mount Grappa to the Venetian Lagoon, the Veneto region is perfect for e-bike touring. Over 12 days, we invite you to cycle along rivers, through vineyards, and past medieval villages, starting from three stopover towns: Bassano del Grappa, Abano Terme, and Sottomarina di Chioggia.
From the Prosecco hills to the Euganean Hills, you’ll travel through a region where history, wine, and nature come together. Our journey ends on the shores of the lagoon, between the canals of Chioggia and the wild landscapes of the Po Delta. Along the way, wine tastings and visits to historic villas and towns will punctuate the trip.
Thanks to the e-bike, this Level 2+ tour—with daily rides ranging from 35 to 60 km—will require no excessive effort. Two guides will accompany you—one from Vélo Québec Voyages à vélo and one local French-speaking guide—and we’ll take care of transporting your luggage.
