Cycle Path Along Marina di Vasto Nature Park

Highlight • Cycleway

It's a popular cycle path and it would be inadvisable to whiz around at 40 km/h on a racing bike. Pedaling accompanied by the smell of pine trees and the scent of the sea is a far greater emotion than monitoring your average speed on your bike's GPS. Enjoy it!

Via Verde dei Trabocchi – Cycling on the most beautiful balcony of the Adriatic Sea.

If there is one cycling route you must ride in your life, it is the Via Verde dei Trabocchi.

This breathtaking cycle path, over 50 kilometers long, is built on the spectacular route of a former railway line, right along the rugged coast of the Italian region of Abruzzo. Because the route is never steep and is completely car-free, it offers pure, carefree enjoyment for every type of cyclist.
You are literally cycling just a stone's throw from the lapping water.
Historic, cool railway tunnels, hidden pebble coves (calette), and idyllic little harbors alternate at an incredible pace.


The absolute stars of the route are the iconic trabocchi: monumental, centuries-old wooden fishing platforms on stilts that float like giant spiders above the turquoise sea. Once a clever invention of local fishermen, today they are the most unique seafood restaurants you will ever see.

Station in disuse since 2005, today it is a parking lot. Too bad for the state of abandonment, it would be nice to recover it to guarantee a foothold for passing cyclists.

Monument to the Bather of Vasto

Highlight • Monument

This original work is a tribute to female beauty and represents a girl adjusting her bathing suit before diving into the waters of the Gulf of Vasto. The monument consists of a bronze statue placed on the rock of Scaramuzza and was built in 1979 by the Abruzzese sculptor Aldo D'Adamo. The statue is often mistakenly called "The Little Mermaid", perhaps due to its resemblance to the symbolic work of Copenhagen.

Trabocco Cungarelle

Highlight • Structure

The trabocco or travocco is an imposing construction made of Aleppo pine wood typical of the areas of the middle Adriatic, moldable, capable of withstanding the saltiness and the strong gusts of the mistral that beat the Adriatic. Consisting of a platform jutting out into the sea anchored to the rock by large trunks from which two or more long arms, called antennas, stretch out, suspended a few meters from the water, which support a huge tight-meshed network: the "balance". The different characterization of the coastline has defined the distinction of different typologies: this one, the Abruzzo one, is distinguished precisely by being positioned transversely with respect to the coast to which it is connected by walkways.
