While ECF and National EuroVelo Coordination Centers and Coordinators (NECC/Cs) make every effort to ensure the tracks and their levels of development are both current and accurate, errors or outdated information can occur.

Please download and read the complete disclaimer before using the tracks.

For most of this stage, EuroVelo 8 follows the course of the River Po – which represents the only time EuroVelo 8 leaves the coastline of the Mediterranean. Beginning in the lively city of Turin, the river and the cycle route make their way across gently undulating countryside largely on dedicated cycling infrastructure, which makes the route ideal for families or people new to cycling tourism. After connecting to the Adriatic, the route heads north, along the outer islands of the Venice Lagoon. It is necessary to use ferries to island hop along this barrier, but we strongly recommend a visit to romantic Venice!
