We left our haven of the night before, and continued on down the Brenta, which became narrower. I was hoping we could cut across to some lakes which had camping, but it didn't happen somehow, maybe we missed a turn somewhere, we seemed locked in to the steep walled Brenta. Camping spots are hard to come by, we've been in hotels for days now, budget havoc.
Finally we came out of the mountains at Bassano, another striking old town of Northern Italy.
Next day, we cut across country, no more bike paths, just using the brilliant iPhone ap, Pocket Earth, which gave us a bike route to follow along the quieter streets and roads. We didn't make our destination, Treviso, because of rain, and there is more forecast for tomorrow. There is really only a day's travel left to reach Venice, but because of weather it will be two, I think.
The first two pictures are of the bike route a little before Bassano, the third is of the view from the hillside town of Asolo, on our way to Treviso.
