The best road cycling routes around Cordignano

The springs of the Livenza at Santissima The spring of the Livenza at Santissima is fed by the waters that emerge from the limestone rock of the Carnic Prealps. The quantity of water is such that the river becomes navigable a few meters from the source. According to legend, to commemorate the apparition of the Holy Trinity to Emperor Theodosius (473), a small shrine was built near the spring. In a short time, the place became a destination for pilgrimages and rites related to fertility. A few meters from the spring stands the church of the Santissima Trinità, rebuilt and enlarged in the 16th century. A beautiful portico with arches leads directly inside the Sanctuary, where remarkable works of art can be admired, including the wooden altar depicting the Holy Trinity by Domenico da Tolmezzo (1494), as well as frescoes and paintings from the 16th and 17th centuries. Of particular naturalistic interest are also the "olle di risorgiva" (spring pools) in the Fontaniva area, where they create a suggestive landscape of water mirrors and small lakes scattered in the vegetation.

The Mire road winds through the territory of Corbanese, a hamlet of Tarzo, representing one of the most spectacular stretches of the Prosecco hills. This ridge itinerary ideally connects the area of Tarzo with that of Vittorio Veneto, offering a privileged perspective on the famous "feuds" of the area. The route is characterized by a succession of ups and downs that cut through high-altitude vineyards, where the slopes become extreme and cultivation becomes art. Along the Mire, the horizon opens to the south onto the Trevigiano plain and to the north onto the Belluno Prealps, creating a unique visual contrast between the geometric rigor of the rows and the wild nature of the peaks. It is an iconic place for those seeking silence and the raw beauty of the territory, far from the more trafficked valley routes.

Located at the foot of the Treviso Prealps, the Abbey of Santa Maria di Follina is one of the greatest masterpieces of late Romanesque and Cistercian Gothic style in Italy. Originally founded by Benedictine monks and brought to its greatest splendor by the Cistercians in the 13th century, the abbey amazes with the harmony of its proportions and the spirituality it emanates. The true jewel of the complex is the cloister, completed in 1268: an architectural masterpiece where paired, single, or spiral-decorated columns support elegant arches, creating a unique play of light and shadow. Inside the church, the majestic altarpiece and the statue of the Madonna of the Sacred Chalice make the site a vibrant pilgrimage destination even today. A place where the art, silence, and history of the wool-making monks are inextricably intertwined.

In the heart of the Prosecco Superiore DOCG hills, declared a UNESCO World Heritage site, Santo Stefano di Valdobbiadene represents the purest essence of heroic viticulture. This village is surrounded by a natural amphitheatre of very steep vineyards, where human labour has blended for centuries with a landscape shaped by the characteristic "ciglioni", the grassy terraces that follow the curves of the land. The hamlet is famous for being an integral part of the prestigious Cartizze area, a small patch of land of only 107 hectares where the sun exposure and soil composition gift the most prized bubbles of the denomination. Strolling among historic cellars and belvedere points, you breathe in an authentic hospitality linked to the wine culture. Among the most curious and beloved places stands out the Osteria senz’Oste, a rustic farmhouse where visitors can refresh themselves in complete autonomy, celebrating an indissoluble bond between territory, trust, and peasant conviviality.
