Route 8 daagse Fietsvakantie Cycling the Prosecco Hills
Treviso, located just a short drive north of Venice in the foothills of the Dolomites, is thought to be the most cycled province in Italy [1] thanks to the great variety of scenic roads and picturesque rolling hills. Many professional cyclists train on these routes and there are countless events, including the famous Giro d’Italia, taking place here each year. Added to this, this hilly land also happens to be the home of Italy’s most prized sparkling wine: Prosecco! For this exciting trip we have designed and hand-picked five circular and point-to-point routes to showcase the very best this wine-growing region has to offer. You will be pedalling on back country roads and through breathtaking vine-covered hills, extending as far as the eye can see, and passing through several fascinating historic towns along the way, including elegant Treviso, Bassano and mediaeval Asolo. At the end of each day your efforts will be rewarded by tasting the best of local gastronomy, obviously along with a crisp glass of delicious Prosecco! [1] taxonomy/term/310
