The Via Claudia Augusta, the ancient Roman road that from the plains of the Adriatic (Altino) led to the Danube (Donauwörth), comes back to life after 200 years of history thanks to the construction of a cycle path.
It is an itinerary that develops along an ancient cultural and commercial route of the Roman Empire.
It extends over three countries (Germany, Austria and Italy), the Alps, ten regions, three climates which will amaze you with their unique variety of landscapes.
Lively towns, charming villages, countless testimonies of a turbulent history and various cultures influenced by it, as well as gastronomic specialties and exquisite wines await you along the way.
This bike route has two variants: the Via Claudia Augusta "Altinate" towards Altino, Feltre and Venice and the Via Claudia Augusta "Padana" towards Verona and Ostiglia sul Po.
Considered by cyclists the easiest alpine pass, two milestones are still preserved today as a testimony of this road, one in Rablà in Val Venosta and one in Cesiomaggiore in Valbelluna.
