    Starting from Sacile, a town crossed by the waters of the Livenza and called the Garden of the Serenissima for its Venetian atmosphere. You cycle towards the foothills of Pordenone where the Palù di Livenza archaeological site, a UNESCO heritage site, is located, until you reach near the municipality of Polcenigo, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy known for the art of basket weaving. Rich in buildings that testify to its long history, the setting of Polcenigo is dominated by the waters of the Livenza and the nearby Gorgazzo springs. Proceeding towards Aviano you encounter Castello di Aviano, named after its 10th-century castle. The route continues with spectacular views of the foothill mountains and up to the vicinity of Malnisio, a hamlet of Montereale Valcellina, where the "A. Pitter" Hydroelectric Power Plant is located, the first power plant in the Venezie area and one of the first in Italy, now transformed into a technology museum. Finally, you arrive at Maniago, the city of knives.
