April 25, 2026, Oasi Naturalistica Val Grande

The Val Grande Oasis is a 360-hectare green lung located behind Bibione, which has preserved a perfect balance between nature and human intervention for centuries. This fishing valley, which remained private property for generations, holds extraordinary biodiversity amidst brackish water expanses, reed beds, and ancient holm oak woods. Beyond its naturalistic value, which makes it a refuge for flamingos and herons, the oasis hides archaeological treasures such as the mosaics of the Roman villa of Mutteron dei Frati. Accessible only through guided tours or cycling and horseback riding trails, Val Grande offers a leap back in time, bestowing an ancestral silence that contrasts with the liveliness of the Adriatic coast and testifies to the ancient origin of the Venetian lagoon landscape.

The Val Grande Naturalistic Oasis is a protected area located in the tourist resort of Bibione. This oasis is a true paradise for nature lovers and for those seeking a place of peace and tranquility away from the chaos of the city. Its extension of over 300 hectares is composed of a wide variety of biotopes that are home to a rich flora and fauna. Here it is possible to admire species of birds, reptiles, amphibians and mammals that live in this natural environment where nature and man have coexisted in harmony for centuries. The Oasis was made accessible to the public in 2024, thanks to the initiative of Bibione Spiaggia Srl, with the aim of preserving and enhancing one of the last corners of uncontaminated nature in the Veneto coastal area. Its history is closely linked to that of Bibione, a very popular seaside resort, which over the years has been subjected to strong tourist and urban development, while maintaining a large part of natural territory. https://oasivalgrande.com/

However, only via the Internet. The skipper emphasizes this again and again.😉 The rest is very straightforward. You receive a confirmation via WhatsApp and payment can be made on the ship.

Part of the GiraLemene cycle itinerary, this segment runs alongside the fishermen's quarries of Maranghetto and reaches Sindacale crossing the Bosco delle Lame, the most beautiful and significant example of a lowland forest in Eastern Veneto. The Bosco delle Lame occupies an area of approximately 33 hectares and includes a vast agricultural reclamation area (in which an important afforestation work was carried out between 1997 and 1999) and a more recent wetland of 8 hectares. Tall maples, ash trees, hornbeams, alders, white and black poplars make those who visit this forest forget the fact that they are among one of the largest agricultural areas in the Veneto. Here it is not uncommon to spot squirrels, hares, foxes, pheasants, marsh harriers, swans and roe deer. Furthermore, there are as many as 300 species that nest in this area, considered one of the most important repopulation areas in the Veneto. In 2021, the Municipality of Concordia Sagittaria (VE), thanks to the "Eastern Venice: the widespread forest" project, started the process for a massive expansion of the forest near Sindacale with a further 3 hectares and 5,000 plants.
