The Pedemontana FVG3 cycle route crosses the region following the imaginary line delimiting the regional Alpine arc and covers a total distance of about 180 km. The cycle route starts in Sacile, crossed by the Livenza river, and ends in Gorizia-Nova Gorica (Slovenia) . Along the route we cross the villages of Maniago, known worldwide for its cutlery production, Gemona del Friuli medieval village contaminated by Street Art and contemporary architecture and Cividale del Friuli UNESCO site for Longobard art. In this area, the renowned wines of the Grave, Colli Orientali del Friuli, Isonzo and Collio DOC zones are produced and can be tasted in the numerous wine cellars.
