Nordic Walking

Sports lovers and health enthusiasts now have a new passion in Lignano Sabbiadoro as well: Nordic walking.

Grab those ultralight poles and wear comfortable clothes: that’s all you need, and you're ready for a long walk on the beach, along the lagoon or in the shade of maritime pines.

Nordic walking has reached the beaches of Lignano Sabbiadoro from far-away Finland, offering all those who wish to stroll without putting in a great deal of effort or requiring technical or physical preparation to enjoy long walks in the open air with a slow, steady pace.

In fact, anyone can practice Nordic walking, and while it's a great workout for athletes, it is also an opportunity to go outside and rediscover the joy of moving around for those who are more sedentary.

Anyone can go Nordic walking in Lignano in total freedom and autonomy, but a basic Nordic walking course is recommended to learn the basics of posture control, foot use, pole function, active arm work and pace adjustment.

Indeed, Lignano Sabbiadoro has a group of people who are passionate about this sport and wanted to enjoy their Nordic walks in the company of others. This gave rise to the Lignano Nordic Walking Association; it organises basic Nordic walking courses, with excursions on the beach and around Lignano throughout the year as well as special events such as moonlight walks and women-only walks.

The "Nordic Walk" becomes a fixed appointment in the summer of Lignano Pineta! From 13 June every Tuesday morning meeting at 8.15 and departure at 8.30 at Bagno 2 – German flag in Lignano Pineta and until 29 August, it will be possible to practice the sport of Nordic Walking and Water Nordic Walking accompanied by the instructor Paolo De Nardo .
