Önállóan bejárható e-bike túra Vicenza palladiánus villái között

The only and original Palladian Villas E-Bike tour explores the surroundings of Vicenza passing through 11 Villas, 7 of which are Unesco Palladian Heritage.
The experience includes the rental of a luxurious Palladian E-Bike extremely comfortable and performing (bag and locks included), a special navigation system and an itinerant vocal narration: the guiding voice will be the spirit of Andrea Palladio, who retraces his history through the evolution of his villas (entrances excluded) and the immersion in his landscapes.
The Network of Palladian Villas owners invites you to immerse yourself in an original, active and healthy way in the history and landscapes of the Unesco Heritage that made our architect the most influential in history.
Deep in the Vicenza countryside, sumptuous residences follow one another as far as the eye can see in a widespread ecomuseum, with the gaze of a time traveler who admires the ever-evolving forms of the nobleman's country residence: from the only initially available reference of the medieval castle, until it gradually transformed into the world-famous Palladian Villa, thanks to the genius of a modest and prodigious stonemason.

The itinerary is 55km long, all flat, and can be completed in between 5 and 8 hours, depending on your pace and the times of rest you choose.
