a leap in the heart
Hang gliding and paragliding offer hours of flight, without noise or pollution, immersed in nature. The whole Treviso foothills are splendidly suited for free flight. From Vittorio Veneto to the lakes of Revine, then passing through Valdobbiadene, to finally reach Monte Grappa, there are numerous areas suitable for the practice of free flight. The Monte Grappa Massif area is a very important center for all free flight enthusiasts in Europe and around the world. Along the slope of the Massiccio del Grappa inf
acts are formed almost constant thermal updrafts that ensure pilots long hours of flight throughout the year. The sites are easily accessible and the environment and the view make the flight unique and inimitable: the entire Venetian plain with the cities of Treviso, Venice, Padua, Vicenza and the Dolomite peaks to the north.

The world in a province
The river Sile
The longest resurgence river in Europe is protected within the Sile River Regional Natural Park. A park with a thousand surprises! Cervara Oasis: a naturalistic paradise for young and old. From the resurgences to the Venice Lagoon on foot, by bike, by canoe or with the “barges” to discover nature: a thousand ways to discover the River of Silence and its territory.
The Montello
Montello has many hidden corners to offer: a development of caves to be discovered. And for those who love to immerse themselves in history, the traces of the Great War are still visible.
From Grappa to Cansiglio
the Trevigiana Mountain is full of places where nature reigns supreme: the Astego Vegetational Garden, for example, with the reconstruction of alpine environments, very suitable for families and school groups. Or why not get lost in the flavors of the mountain huts? And the enchanting micro-climate of Cansiglio, a plateau and a forest full of history and natural wonders?
In short, the Trevigiana Mountain is a treasure to discover!
