The Cavallino Treporti Peninsula

Arriving in Cavallino Treporti is a cathartic experience. The feeling is leaving dry land and reaching a finisterre (the end of the world) like, when riding a bike, you take your feet off the ground and try to keep your balance, as you were walking on a tightrope. Here, we talk about the balance of a strip of land nearby Venice, floating between sea and river, sandbanks, embankments, and dunes. About 30 km from Noventa di Piave, the tourist park of Cavallino Treporti is a sort of small other dimension, although it is not that far away from main centres: it’s four hours from Milan, two hours or more from Bologna or Trieste.
