This experience is one of the proposals that we love, a tour where the local community meets the tourist. Battaglia Terme is a living example of the river culture of Veneto. Its historic center preserves unique testimonies of this world now lost, maintained in life thanks to the local associationism that transmits traditions from one generation to another.
PROGRAM:
We will start the visit to the Museum of River Navigation which collects a rich collection of historical photographs, model boats, reconstruction of river landscapes and original films. After exploring the Museum with your guide, you will take a short walk through the river village of Battaglia Terme to discover the waterfall of over 7 meters and finally leave for a boat tour.
The excursion takes place on board a “caorlina”, traditional Venetian wooden boat brought to oars by rowers of the local rowing club. We will walk along the ancient waterways that in the past were crossed by burches laden with cereals, wine barrels and especially trachite, the euganean stone used by the Venetians for the pavement of the streets and Piazza San Marco.
