サンジョルジョデラリチンベルダの天然記念物・トップ6

At this point, "dam cycling" is the order of the day. The dam regulates any flooding of the Cellina River and is approximately 5 meters high. The width at the dam is about that of a car and has one or two rutted tracks. Cycling side by side is not recommended due to the risk of slipping, so for me it's an easy, flat single trail. From the dam, there are views to the right and left of the expansive Magredi.

The Magredi del Cellina area is located in a flat area just south of the Carnic Alps and Prealps, which constitute a barrier against the cold winds coming from the north and cause a sudden cooling of the mild air that blows from the south. The abundant rainwater permeates inside a gravelly mattress made up of manure from the two streams Cellina and Meduna, which determines the peculiar superficial dryness of the soil.

The Cellina stream originates in Margons, a town in the municipality of Claut, at an altitude of about 650 m asl. It runs through the Valcellina for about thirty kilometers and at the exit from the valley its waters infiltrate a large crosses another, the one that has swallowed the river Meduna. The waters of the two streams will reappear on the surface in the resurgence area, in the territory of Cordenons, and then descend until they flow into the Livenza river.

Valvasone, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy !!! During the month of September the town evokes the Middle Ages, a must see !!!

The castelliere rises close to the left bank of the Tagliamento. It had been erected to probably protect and support an important ford on the Tagliamento. To date, no archaeological excavations have been carried out, but the pottery collected in the course of surface investigations indicates a period of life on the site between the Late Late Bronze Age and the beginning of the Iron Age (XII-IX century BC).

The magredi biotope of San Quirino is a protected natural area of Friuli-Venezia Giulia established in 1997. It occupies an area of about 20 ha in the province of Pordenone. It is an area mainly made up of arid meadows and groves. Spontaneous flowers abound in the meadows; flora and fauna express themselves in a wild and enchanting way.

The ford on the Meduna river precedes, coming from the east, the ford on the Cellina river. The flat morphology, the typology of the stony ground and the almost absent vegetation characterize the bed of the two rivers.
