The best road cycling routes around Campagna Lupia

Villa Foscarini Rossi, in Stra, is one of the historic villas that tell the story of the great transformation of the Riviera del Brenta between the 16th and 18th centuries, when Venetian families built elegant country residences along the river. The villa was built in the 17th century by the Foscarini family and later passed to the Rossi family. The complex still preserves the historic rooms and artistic heritage of the villa today; it also houses the Rossimoda Shoe Museum, linked to the shoemaking tradition of the Riviera del Brenta.

This small paved road along the Bacchiglione riverbank allows you to cycle away from traffic to the point where the river joins the Brenta river course, just before its mouth.

It is one of the most challenging climbs in the Euganean Hills. Monte della Madonna da Teolo is a climb located in the Padova region. It has a length of 4.2 km, an elevation gain of 362 m, and an average gradient of 8.6%. The highest point is at 522 m above sea level. After Monte Venda (601 m) it is the second highest point in the Euganean Hills.

The climb leading from Torreglia to Castelnuovo is one of the most famous, scenic, and challenging ascents in the Euganean Hills, very popular with cyclists. The route winds for about four kilometers and is characterized by an average gradient of around eight percent, but it hides very steep ramps that reach peaks close to twenty percent. The road, initially immersed among vineyards and foothill villages, climbs rapidly with severe gradients, tackling several spectacular hairpin bends. As you gain altitude, the vegetation becomes denser, regularly opening up to breathtaking panoramic views that stretch over the Padan Plain and the surrounding hills. Reaching the summit at Castelnuovo rewards cyclists' efforts with a splendid view of Monte Venda and represents a strategic junction for continuing towards other Euganean itineraries.
