Trenitalia and Italo provide the main long-distance services, while regional trains connect the Veneto area with nearby cities. The causeway between Mestre and Santa Lucia makes rail the main access route into the historic lagoon station.

Venezia Santa Lucia is the main train station for arrivals directly in the lagoon city, while Venezia Mestre handles many national, regional, and connecting services on the mainland.
Rail routes from Venice run west toward Padua, Verona, Milan, and Turin, south toward Bologna, Florence, Rome, and Naples, north toward Treviso and the Alpine corridors, and east through Friuli Venezia Giulia toward Trieste and Udine. Book trains from and to Venice online at Rail Monsters.

Venice Major Train Stations
Venice has two main rail stations with different roles. Venezia Santa Lucia is the island terminus at the end of the rail causeway, used by Trenitalia Frecciarossa, Intercity, Regionale services, Italo high-speed trains, and selected ÖBB Nightjet services. Venezia Mestre is the mainland interchange, serving the same national operators plus a wider set of regional connections across Veneto and northeastern Italy. Many trains call at both stations, but some long-distance or regional services use Mestre only, so passengers should check the station name before booking. Transfers between Venezia Mestre and Venezia Santa Lucia are by frequent Trenitalia regional trains over the causeway. Use the station cards below to view individual station details.
