    The 19th stage of the Giro d'Italia 2024, will start May 24 from Mortegliano to Sappada.
    Mortegliano, south of Udine, boasts the tallest bell tower in Italy (113 m) built between 1955 and 1959 by Udine architect Pietro Zanini. Together with the cathedral, it is the symbol of the town and an important visual reference for the entire surrounding plain. The stage passes through San Daniele del Friuli, Peonis, Tolmezzo and Arta Terme. It continues with some ups and downs to Paularo, Rigolato and Forni Avoltri, across Passo Duron at 1076 meters above sea level.
    The highest point is Cima Sappada, at the foot of Monte Siera, at 1290 m above sea level, from which you finally reach Sappada, a renowned mountain resort framed by the Dolomites and located in the northwest of Friuli Venezia Giulia, on the border with Veneto.
    The gpx track on this sheet, begins near Arta Terme, a locality equipped with parking and services where the final, mountainous section of the 19th stage of the Giro d'Italia to Sappada starts.
