The Territory
The territory of Dolo is located at the center of the Riviera del Brenta, extending on both banks of the Naviglio, which is a minor branch (27.37 km) of the river Brenta between Stra and Padua; from Stra the Naviglio flows into the Venetian lagoon near Fusina, crossing the towns of Fiesso d'Artico, Dolo and Mira. At the center of Dolo, the Naviglio doubles forming the so-called Bassa Island. The area is crossed by numerous other watercourses, small streams and drains such as the Seriola, the Serraglio, the Brentoncino and the Tergolino.
