Camping Sporting Center

Once you've unpeeled yourself from the massage table, get out to see what the Venetian region has to offer: Camping Sporting Center is relaxedly placed to get to its best. The site is in Colli Euganei or the Euganean Hills, the first national park designated in the Veneto region and an area filed with hikes and bike rides. And eating, but of course: ramble or pedal your way around the region's many agriturismi, the small family-run restaurants dishing up proper-size portions of homemade food at proper prices. Venice is easily accessible by train from here (in about an hour and five minutes) and a bit of a must to see its famed canal, St Mark's Square, the Rialto Bridge (and a few thousand other bridges…), the Accademia Art Museum and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. Also recommended are Padua, known for its Old Town and for the Scrovegni Chapel with its world-famed 14th-century fresco cycle by Giotto; and cruising along the Riviera del Brenta, with its swish Italian villas and lush adjoining gardens.
