The Venice Marathon is an international marathon known worldwide, a program of events and initiatives that attracts wide interest from many, not just the runners.
The race starts in Stra, outside Padua, along the Brenta Riviera, a beautiful riverside area where rich Venetian aristocrats built their noble mansions in the 18th century, and finishes in the historic center of Venice, after passing through St. Mark’s Square and then on to the Riva Sette Martiri, very close to our hotel.
The itinerary develops through an area rich in history, culture and beautiful landscapes, marked by the numerous Venetian villas facing the Brenta River. The marathon then runs through the nearby towns of Marghera and Mestre, and then crosses the Liberty Bridge to Venice.
