1/4 JUNE “THE LAGOON OF MARANO and GRADO”
International meeting for vintage and classic motorboats and cars
Organised by Asdec.
During our navigation we will pass through areas of tall, dense swamp reeds, where we will be able to see the many different species of birds nesting and the sandbanks where hunting and fishing are still a way of life. The breathtaking lagoons of Marano and Grado, where nature has remained uncontaminated for over 1,000 years, will will reveal some of the most picturesque aspects of the area and its 210 tiny islands. On many of these islands the traditional Casoni huts made from swamp reeds with their typical straw roofs are still standing. These huts, once used by fishermen, are nowadays used by their owners for week-end outings.
The meeting will be held in tandem with the ASI vintage automobile club event: “Ruote del Passato” (Wheels of the Past). Our motorist friends will welcome us aboard their vintage gems and take ASDEC members to visit the beauties of the hinterland.
