Getting around Ravenna
On foot
Walking down the streets is maybe the best way to visit Ravenna.
The city centre features a wide pedestrian area, and it’s easy to lose yourself strolling around all those monuments. Once ancient waterways, the alleys are today charming and welcoming urban places.
On foot, slowly, you will discover a universe of peace and tranquillity.
By bike
Visiting Ravenna by bike means discovering both the city and its surroundings, combining sustainability and pleasure.
Thanks to the network of cycle routes departing from the city centre, you can easily visit the historical centre or reach the nine beach towns of the Ravenna coastline.
Along the various itineraries you will have the possibility to admire suggestive places, breathtaking views, landscapes of unblemished nature and historical remains.

By car
Ravenna features many parking areas, both paid and free.
Most of the city centre is a Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL in Italian). The circulation of motor vehicles is therefore subject to restrictions, according to specific time frames, and access is monitored by an electronic control system.
If you travel by car, ask your host for information or visit our website to know more about the Limited Traffic Zones in the city.
TREKKING
Ravenna is a destination and stop of many trails and pilgrimage routes that cross the Emilia-Romagna region, such as Cammino di Dante® and Via Romea Germanica.
Cover long distances on foot, as in the past, and rediscover the pleasure of walking, of savouring slowness and enjoying the beauty of nature.
