A ride to discover the nature and villages of Val Resia, located in the shadow of the Mount Canin massif in the heart of the Julian Pre-Alps Nature Park. This challenging pedaling will allow you to discover the natural landscapes and villages of Val Resia. The route starts from the section of the Alpe Adria cycle route in the locality of Resiutta. The route partly runs along the Resia stream, which in the locality of Povici creates a small beach to relax a few steps from its refreshing waters. Along the way you can stop at scenic viewpoints, discover elements of the local cultural heritage and be surprised by the extraordinary biodiversity of this area. When you arrive in the locality of Tigo, and after a short stretch on a low-traffic provincial road, you climb to the villages of San Giorgio and Prato, where the Visitor Center of the Julian Pre-Alps Park is located. For the return trip, you retrace the same stretch. Recommended route with e-bike.
Challenging but pleasant detour along the Tarvisio-Venzone stage of the Alpe Adria cycle route. A visit to the Julian Pre-Alps Park Visitor Center is recommended.
