    The variant route leads to the discovery of the villages along the valley of the Degano stream as far as Comeglians, crossing the town of Ovaro. For better-trained cyclists, switch from the cycle route to its variant by climbing over the climb of Sella Valcalda in Ravascletto following roads open to traffic (altitude 958 metres).

    Along the route several cultural and food and wine detours are available. Pedalling in the direction of Ovaro you will reach Raveo, an authentic Italian village renowned for its small biscuits named after this small settlement in Carnia. In Ovaro visitors can also explore the Venetian Wood and Sawmill Museum, a unique testament to the use of the resources of the forest and the timber industry that has been documented in Carnia since the 18th century, during the rule of the Venetian Republic. In the nearby surroundings of Ovaro, just off the cycle route, an excursion to the Cludinico Mine is highly recommended.

    Author’s recommendation

    It is recommended to reach Tolmezzo from Venzone station and enjoy the beautiful route along the Tagliamento River cycleway.
