Start from the convenient parking lot of Punta Sabbioni with the sea at your side and immediately the landscape wins you over: on one side stands the island of Sant'Erasmo, the vegetable garden of Venice, while in front of you opens the view of the Punta Sabbioni Lighthouse, a beautiful guardian at the gates of the lagoon. Cycle along the Lungomare Dante Alighieri and enjoy the wonderful view of Sant'Erasmo, a moment of peace and tranquility that only this lagoon can offer. Continue and admire the imposing structure of the MOSE, a masterpiece of civil engineering that protects Venice from high water.
Leave the beach and immerse yourself in the lush Pineta di Punta Sabbioni, where forest paths accompany you in unspoiled nature. Among silent country lanes, breathe in the scent of pine trees and let yourself be lulled by the quiet. Before closing the loop, stop at Forte Treporti, an Austrian fortress built between 1845 and 1851 to monitor the lagoon area: its telemetric towers tell stories of war and sightings.
You return to Punta Sabbioni with your heart and memory full of marine views, lagoon views, history and nature. A small tour that encapsulates the soul of the Venetian coast.
