Padua Trip Overview
The Euganean Hills are a group of hills of volcanic origin that rise to heights of 300 to 600 m from the Paduan-Venetian plain a few kilometres south of Venice, 20 minutes by car from Padua.
Here you will find beautiful landscapes of vineyards and olive groves, alternating with castles, villas and small medieval villages. A beautiful cycle path, all on the flat, embraces this landscape, it is the Euganean Hills Cycle Route. Whether you want to ride it all or just a few small sections, we will give you all the advice you need to organise your bike tour in the southern part of the Euganean Hills to discover the Catajo Castle, the Valsanzibio Garden and the walled city of Monselice, or in the northern part, to visit Villa dei Vescovi or Praglia Abbey. In both cases, we will organise a pleasant break in a family-run winery where the producer will explain his wines to you and accompany you first on a visit to his cellar and then to a wine tasting.
