And it could not be otherwise, since this route is the emblem of our territory. Only those who explore it can claim to have discovered all the facets of our hills. \u00a0But there are many more, suitable for everyone, which we will report on in future issues of the newsletter.<\/p>\n<p>The route <strong>runs right at the foot of the hills<\/strong> and all around: the landscape changes with every pedal stroke. The peaks tell the way: just as the sailors followed the Big Dipper, so the reference point will be the many <strong>volcanic heights<\/strong> in the hills. The handlebars of the bike will always tend to turn in the same direction to circumnavigate this unique territory.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Bike rental service available at Hotel Tritone <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Before riding through the Euganean Hills, we would like to remind the guests of the Hotel Tritone that it is possible to <strong>rent electric bikes<\/strong> (and not) directly from our reception desk, upon request to the staff.<\/p>\n<p>The pick-up and delivery takes place right at the hotel and you can also download an <strong>app<\/strong> with several routes to choose from. \u00a0One of them is the one we are about to tell, the most comprehensive and also the most challenging. Many others, simpler and suitable for all ages, will be published later.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The itinerary that narrates the history, nature, and art of the Colli<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Starting from Abano, and deciding to follow the loop clockwise, the route is made up of wonders that clamour for countless photo opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately after the start, you will come across <strong>Villa Draghi<\/strong>, which dominates Montegrotto Terme; it is followed, in the territory of Battaglia Terme, by <strong>Catajo Castle<\/strong>, also known as &#8220;the Royal Palace of the Euganean Hills&#8221;: a <strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/en\/territory\/the-royal-palace-of-the-euganean-hills-a-visit-to-catajo-castle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">place that we at Hotel Tritone have already suggested in this post<\/a>.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The first triad of wonders concludes with <strong>Villa Emo Capodilista<\/strong> and its unsurpassed garden.<\/p>\n<p>Pedaling southwards, we are enchanted by the two most picturesque towns on this cycle route: Monselice and Este.<\/p>\n<p>The castle of <strong>Monselice <\/strong>sumptuously greets cyclists, from the top of a green hillock. A view that is easily immortalized and tends to remain in the hearts of those who ride this route.<\/p>\n<p>The passage through <strong>Este<\/strong>, on the other hand, seals what is a real journey through time. What is fascinating is the contrast between the modernity we bring with us (mobile phones and electric bicycles) and the walls that run at a slow pace, interspersed with merlons and remnants of the sky.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6803\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en-570x321.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-art.04-en.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The route continues through the <strong>Paduan countryside<\/strong>, among canals in which clouds are reflected, endless meadows and elegant herons soaring.<\/p>\n<p>It is not too long, however, before you discover another castle, that of <strong>Valbona<\/strong>, which once again tells of the Middle Ages in these parts.<\/p>\n<p>Almost at the end of this tour, the <strong>Praglia Abbey<\/strong> appears before the cyclists&#8217; eyes, another place mentioned in this blog, in the form of a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/en\/territory\/visit-abbazia-di-praglia-praglia-abbey-the-most-picturesque-in-the-euganean-hills\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong><u>travel tip<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, just a few minutes from the Hotel Tritone.
