A TREASURE OF COLOURS
LAG Patavino includes 23 municipalities of the south-west area of the province of Padua with a demographic basin of 125,214 inhabitants.
The territory that forms this area is characterized by many-sided landscapes, but it can be shared into two principal areas: the first is hilly, covering the northern side and being comprised of the territory of the Euganei Hills Regional Park, while the second is flatter, rich in waterways and covering the area surrounding Montagnana.
It is a varied, many-sided land, rich in different environments and resources.
The Euganei Hills Regional Park represents one of the most important environments: it covers 18,694 hectares and includes 15 Municipalities.
The Park includes the highest hills of the Po Plain that stand isolated in the North of the LAG Patavino territory.
The network of channels, rivers and streams that characterizes the entire
LAG Patavino territory makes this area a “water land,” Rivers and channels, once ways of transportation and trade, now create new types of tourism characterized by the contact with nature on the human scale, far from the speed of land transportation.
The region also includes the Euganean thermal basin with spa towns known all over Europe and beyond, such as Abano Terme, Montegrotto Terme, Battaglia Terme, Galzignano Terme and Teolo with more than 120 hotels-thermal spas.
The hot water that gushes out from the thermal sources is used in bath therapy, thermal swimming pools, and inhalation therapies, but its main function is to allow the maturation, preservation and regeneration of thermal mud. A real paradise for health, wellbeing and relaxation.
