Today you can choose between two routes to Caorle:
Option A: Pedal from Mestre to Venice & from Punta Sabbioni to Caorle.
The route consists of cycling from Mestre to Venice, after a visit to the city, board the ferry and vaporetto, crossing the Venetian lagoon to Punta Sabbioni. Here we recommend a short diversions to see the lighthouse at the tip of the promontory. Following the lagoon, head north-west along the Litorale di Cavallino, a thin strip of land separating the lagoon from the sea. At this point there are several opportunities to stop for a swim. Continue cycling along the coast until you reach Caorle, with its pretty old town and harbour.
Difficulty: 62 km, 180m ascent, 190m descent
Option B: Pedal from Venice to Caorle via Quarto d'Altino.
If you wish to shorten the stage you can take the train from Mestre to Quarto d'Altino and from there cycle to Caorle.
Difficulty: 79km or 59km, 113m or 103m ascent, 130m 120m descent
