    The route is an opportunity to visit all the beaches of Lignano and Bibione and their hinterland. From spring to autumn there is a ferry service with bike racks between Lignano Riviera and Bibione-Punta Tagliamento. Along the route you will pass through naturalistic landscapes such as the Bosco delle Baseleghe and the Foci del Tagliamento nature reserve in Bibione, as well as the canals of the lagoon around Lignano. Not far from the route is the Punta Verde Zoo, which is an ideal place for a break surrounded by nature. Along the way, you can stop in the centre of Lignano Pineta designed by Marcello D'Olivo in the shape of a spiral or in the Hemingway Park or admire the mosaics decorating the entrances to the beach. During the sunset, a regenerating stop in one of the many bars with a sea view for an aperitif in good company will be pleasant.
    The X-RIVER boat connection operates from 5th April to the 2nd November 2025:  Timetable boat connection Lignano - Bibione

    Author’s recommendation

    Duration (excluding stops for sightseeing and detours):
    • tourists on e-bikes: approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes including the ferry trip;
    • tourists on traditional bicycles: approximately 4 hours and 30 minutes including the ferry trip.

    Type of track: a completely flat loop circuit. The route is mostly travelled on cycle tracks or well-kept dirt paths used by cyclists. Some sections are located on roads open to vehicular traffic. This track is appropriate for all types of bicycles except for racing bikes.

    THE COMPLETE ITINERARY CAN ONLY BE CYCLED DURING THE SUMMER when the ferry crossing of the Tagliamento river between Lignano Riviera and Punta Tagliamento Bibione is in service.
