Wonderful route, but, as of today, the old road of the Colvera valley is completely closed to traffic due to maintenance work on the bridge over the Colvera stream. I suggest checking carefully before planning routes.

Maniago Castle is a 12th-century military structure located on the slopes of Mount Jôf, dominating the town. It was built to resolve the problems facing the Patriarchate of Aquileia following the donation of its lands to Patriarch Rodoaldo by Emperor Otto II. The distance between the estates and Aquileia made their administration difficult, especially with the formation of the large fiefdom of Spilimbergo, the consolidation of the Sestensi holdings in the Cellina Valley, those of Millstatt Abbey in the territory of Maniago Libero, and the settlement of the Polcenigo family in Mizza. Therefore, the construction of a castle was necessary, and above all, a "custoria," or "residence fiefdom." During the Turkish invasion of 1467, the walls were reinforced, but after being abandoned in the early 16th century and the earthquakes of 1511 and 1575, the castle began to decline. In 1630, it finally fell into disuse. https://www.comune.maniago.pn.it/it/vivere-il-comune-221534/luoghi-221535/il-castello-239607
