The best MTB trails around Piombino Dese

Tergolandia (known as The Soul's Park) is an original open-air museum located in Bronzola di Campodarsego (Padova). Born in 2010 to unite art and nature, the park extends for about a kilometer along the cycle-pedestrian path that runs alongside the Tergola river. It is an entirely flat route, perfect for walks and bike rides, completely free and open all year round. Its peculiarity lies in the numerous sculptures and artistic installations integrated into the environment: fantastic creatures, gnomes, witches, and dragons made by local artists using natural (like wood) or recycled materials. Along the itinerary, you will also find the ancient Chiesetta di Santa Maria del Panigale, making Tergolandia an ideal stop for those seeking an immersion in fairy tales, history, and the Venetian river landscape.

Considered the "little sister" of the contemporary porta San Tomaso, it is located at the end of Borgo Cavour. It presents itself with its Istrian stone facade with three arches. On the external facade, the representation that stands out above all is the winged lion, symbol of Venice's power over the mainland. It takes its name from the nearby church dedicated to the Forty Martyrs of Sebaste. It was built in 1516, perhaps on a design by Alessandro Leopardi,

Tergolandia, park “art and nature” about 1 km long, with artistic installations made of recycled materials and the small church of Santa Maria in Campanigalli/Panigale, of early medieval origin. You will find several benches and a small fountain near the church.

Safe routes for gravel running lovers, corroborated by unique countryside environments, poplar groves and small woods traversable via white roads and trails.

Located directly along the Ostiglia-Treviso cycle path, Ristorante Casello 104 in Loreggia is a prime example of the functional reuse of railway archaeology. Housed in an old signal box, the establishment has transformed a technical outpost into a convivial meeting point, maintaining an unbreakable link with the identity of the route. The ambiance blends rustic and modern elements, offering a strategic stop not only for cycle tourists but for anyone seeking cuisine that highlights local products in a charming setting. Its privileged location allows guests to enjoy the surrounding greenery, making mealtime a natural extension of the outdoor experience. It is a place where the memory of the rails gives way to the pleasure of the table, confirming how redevelopment can breathe new life into fragments of local history.

The former Loreggia station today represents a charming resting point along the Ciclovia Ostiglia-Treviso route, one of the most beloved cycle tourism routes in the Veneto region. Once an operational hub of the military railway that connected Ostiglia to Treviso, the building retains the typical architecture of early 20th-century stations, testifying to the industrial and logistical past of the area. After the railway line was decommissioned, the structure was repurposed as a facility for travelers traversing the route immersed in greenery. Located in a stretch where nature reclaims its space, the former station serves as an ideal connection point between the history of the territory and contemporary slow tourism, offering an atmosphere suspended between railway archaeology and rural landscape.
