    Route

    The bicycle touring route runs through the hills, suitable for families with well-trained children 10 years and older. It starts in San Daniele del Friuli and pedals toward Comerzo, crossing the Tagliamento River. You follow the FVG6 bike path between Cornino and Pinzano, where you cross the river again on a spectacular bridge. It then climbs toward the Ragogna Mountain to San Giacomo, reaching the village of Pignano di Sopra. A detour to Ragogna Lake, perfect for a picnic, is recommended.

    Excellence is the prosciutto di San Daniele PDO, raw ham of great delicacy and the smoked trout known as the Queen of San Daniele.
    RECOMMENDED DISHES: Prosciutto di San Daniele tasting or risotto with smoked trout

    Author’s recommendation

    After the Cimano Bridge, it is worth a detour to Cornino Lake and the Nature Reserve, which is home to a nesting colony of griffon vultures.
