    This fascinating bicycle route winds through the picturesque pedemontana area of Pordenone, offering total immersion in the art of mosaics, a tradition closely linked to Sequals and Spilimbergo.

    Starting from Spilimbergo, famous for its mosaic school, the route crosses the evocative landscapes of Istrago and Lestans, enriched with mosaic works that adorn palaces, monuments, and public spaces.  The journey continues through Colle and Travesio, where castles and churches testify to the artistic heritage of great Renaissance masters. The ancient village of Toppo, named one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, offers a suggestive stop among stone houses that tell ancient stories and atmospheres of times gone by. Nature reveals its full magnificence while traveling the paths that surround Mondel, Borgo Ampiano, and Valeriano, then closing the loop by returning to Spilimbergo.
