Veneto is a mosaic of water made up of rivers, streams, lagoons and deltas: diverse environments, each to be experienced at its own pace. Some tackle them by canoe through the rapids, others traverse them slowly aboard small cruise boats, and others follow them by cycling along the banks.
In any case, there is only one key word: respect. For the flora, the fauna and the delicate ecosystem that makes these places unique.
