Frecciarossa Milan–Venice

The red arrows took over the Venice run as the Milan–Brescia high-speed segment opened in 2016, and the route now mixes 300 km/h sprint with one of Italy’s richest classic corridors. Verona passes beneath its Roman arena skyline, Lake Garda glints beyond Peschiera and Desenzano, then Vicenza and Padua roll by before the causeway moment: two minutes of open lagoon with Venice rising ahead, and Santa Lucia’s platforms ending at the Grand Canal steps.
