The many castles and small towns around Pordenone are true gems of art and beauty, an irresistible invitation to a journey through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
The hilly region of Friuli is the ideal destination for the slow tourist: cycling excursions through splendid landscapes can be alternated with cultural visits to castles and museums. Perched on one of these hills, San Daniele del Friuli is a centre of evocative beauty, internationally renowned for the production of a ham with an inimitable flavour, which is the result of a millenary tradition and a unique microclimate.
The geographical and historical heart of Friuli, this area has several medieval towns whose past is evident in their architecture and traditional festivals, while an eco-museum preserves and promotes the tangible and cultural heritage of the entire area.
