To cycle the Sile Greenway, it is useful to know its itinerary and have a guides<\/strong> to the route<\/strong> that leads from Treviso to the seaside location of Jesolo: Lido di Jesolo and\/or Cavallino.<\/p>\n

The Greenway follows the course of the river Sile, which rises between Casacorba di Vedelago (TV) and Torreselle, a fraction of Piombino Dese (PD). Its course continues to the south-western outskirts of Treviso<\/strong>, from where the itinerary starts:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The bike route starts from the Sile Restera<\/strong>: the bank that in ancient times was used to tow boats laden with goods with beasts of burden.\n

    Precisely, the starting point is the Parking Porto of Fiera di Treviso.<\/strong>
    From here, taking the inner Stradella C, we reach Via Alzaia: we are on the left bank of the Sile.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. From Via towpath<\/strong>, one must continue, keeping the river to the right, until reaching an area of archaeological interest with large mill buildings. At this point you pass under the ring road.<\/strong>\n<\/li>\n
  3. At the island of Villapendola<\/strong>, there is a narrow stone bridge on the right.
    After the latter, you have to turn right and then left into via Caps.<\/strong>\n<\/li>\n
  4. The path leads to the Green Lake<\/strong> (Green Lake), after which a wooden bridge is visible on the right, leading to the Burci Cemetery.<\/strong> Wooden footbridges unravel from here: be careful, you have to get off your bike and walk this swampy stretch!\n<\/li>\n
  5. After this step, you return to the embankment to reach the vicinity of Casier<\/strong>: the first town touched by the river after Treviso. The Greenway route leads to the characteristic little harbor, adjacent to the square.\n<\/li>\n
  6. Just beyond this, continuing along the embankment, we come to a short section of the cycle path with water on both sides. Here the landscape is embellished by numerous Venetian villas<\/strong>, clearly visible on the shore.\n<\/li>\n
  7. Shortly after passing the highway bridge, there is a short stretch that forces you to leave the embankment. In fact, it is necessary to take the SP67<\/strong>, and then return to the cycle path in Lughignano<\/strong>.\n<\/li>\n
  8. This resumes on a dirt road to Villa Mantovani Orsetti<\/strong> and continues on asphalt along Via Rivalta,<\/strong> Vicinal Street<\/strong> and finally Belvedere Street<\/strong>.\n<\/li>\n
  9. We meet again at Casale sul Sile<\/strong>, where the track crosses the river and passes on the left bank, continuing for a few kilometers in a southerly direction. This is one of the most popular stretches of the Sile Greenway, thanks to bends and vegetation that make the route very picturesque.\n<\/li>\n
  10. The cycle path reaches Musestre<\/strong>, a fraction of Roncade. Here you come across the Tower of Eberardo<\/strong>: what remains of a medieval castle built by the Lombards.\n<\/li>\n
  11. Going through the Trepalade Oasis<\/strong>, the Greenway route leads to the village of Portegrandi<\/strong>: an ancient estuary of the River Sile until the creation of the \u2018cut\u2019 by the Venetians in 1683.\n<\/li>\n
  12. After crossing the lock, the cycle path enters the lagoon's eaves: it is a straight 11 km ride to Caposile<\/strong>, arriving near a boat bridge.\n<\/li>\n
  13. To get to Jesolo<\/strong>, you turn right about 200m before the bridge: you take a newly built dirt road that follows the bends in the river for about 6km. This section offers a splendid view of the lagoon and ends with the remains of the ancient Caigo tower.\n<\/li>\n
  14. Here the cycle path stops: to get to Jesolo Paese you have to ride 4 km along the ordinary road.<\/strong>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Once in the center of Jesolo, crossing the river on the pedestrian bridge, you will find the urban cycle network. Follow it to JLido or Cavallino<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
