Lagoon Cycle Path between Aquileia and Grado

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful and also the final section of the Alpe-Adria cycle path. The last few kilometers of the tour run right through the Grado lagoon. Here the cyclist can finally breathe the sea air. The Grado lagoon is very salty compared to other lagoons. The fauna and flora in the lagoon are very lush. Over 150 different species of birds live in the lagoon alone. Many migratory birds rest in the lagoon in spring and autumn. The variety of different species of mussels and fish is also large. For example, the Capa Tonda and the Venus clam live here, as well as various types of shrimp, sole and perch.

One of the largest of the several hundred islands in the lagoon is called Barbana. On Barbana there is a pilgrimage church with the statue of the Madonna and Child, to which the fishermen of Grado hold a pilgrimage every year on the first Sunday in July, the so-called Perdon de Barbana. There are restaurants on several islands in the lagoon. So if you want to rest in an extraordinary ambience, you have come to the right place.

Mandracchio Harbor, Grado

Highlight • Settlement

Destination of the Alpe-Adria cycle path. After eight daily stages with a total of 410 kilometers, you really deserve the jump into the Adriatic. Three beaches with wonderfully clean water invite you to do so. In general, Grado is a very welcoming and interesting place. In addition to its long and turbulent history, Grado is now very popular with tourists. There are over 30 hotels, four campsites and around 40 to 50 restaurants and pubs. A specialty is the Gradeser Boreto, a fish soup. There are about 30 different species of Boreto, depending on the season other species of fish are included. In the months from April to November there are many gastronomic events dedicated to the fish products of Grado and the vegetables that come from the hamlets of Fossalon and Boscat. So it can be endured - even a day or two longer.

Super nice view on both sides. Unfortunately, there is no real bike path or footpath, so it is best to use the narrow strip to take photos without damage. 😉👍

Grado Coastal Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Section of cycle path absolutely to be avoided. Degradation, neglect and danger at the highest levels (brambles up to more than half of the roadway, tall grass, collapsed sections of palisade ...) ... Congratulations to the body responsible for maintenance and also to the tourism promotion body ... hard to do worse ...

March 19, 2023,Terzo d'Aquileia _ Grado _ Valle Cavanata

Nice ride, a nice historical and naturalistic route: to enjoy all this we got on the bike and pedaled from Terzo d'Aquileia on a cycle path and arrived in Aquileia, with its archaeological treasures, and continued towards the sea passing through the Belvedere . Then continued on the Alpe Adria cycle path up to Grado. From the seaside town …

Today I want to explore the surroundings of Grado. Lying on the beach at 33 degrees, that's not possible now. Better to let the hot air blow around my nose.

I've identified 2 nature reserves. The first, Riserva Naturale della Valle Cavanata, is on the way. You can cycle around it and take a short walk through a zone. I'll …

A tour already tested several times but always suggestive in search of nativity scenes. The day is very clear at times windy. Starting from Terzo di Aquileia, we passed through Aquileia, Fossalon, San Lorenzo, crossed the Val Cavanata and arrived in Grado. Returned to the starting point along the Alpe Adria and the Belvedere.

Today we set off from our Isola del Paradiso after a sunny breakfast on our bikes, to Grado over movable and fixed bridges, almost like riding on water.

The beaches are very beautiful (to look at, there is not enough water to 🏊‍♀️) and the ☀️ is good to us. It is great to ride there, well-developed cycle paths and …

After a heavy night with heavy rain I should have checked the tour dates more closely 😂. It was a little bit muddy in places. Nevertheless, the approximately 50km after the long journey did us great good.

Final stage of the 🚴‍♀️🚴Ciclovia AlpeAdria with the finish in 🇮🇹 Grado.

The weather this morning didn't invite you to swim, so we got the bikes going again. First through the nature reserve, fantastically beautiful and quiet, then to Aquileia. We just passed there yesterday, today we took some time and ate the best ice cream.

The journey ends here with a mega summer downpour of major nastiness
