The castle of Solimbergo is an ancient manor. The first traces date back to the Romanesque era. It was a defensive bastion thanks to its strategic position.

Beautiful

Well-preserved and restored castle ruins. The driveway initially goes through the forest, towards the end there is a typically 50-meter-long, steep concrete section in a bend. Once you reach the ruins, you have a beautiful view of Solimbergo, the plain, the Meduno river and as far as Maniago.

Bridge over the Meduna river well integrated into the surrounding environment.

This bridge offers a beautiful view of the Meduna River and the mountains in the distance. The bridge itself is also quite beautiful to admire from afar in the landscape. Since the river is normally dry and is also used by military vehicles for exercises, you can wade across it or even walk along it. You can go down to the riverbed from Sequals, along via Odorico Odorico. Once at the bottom, the view of the bridge and the mountains becomes even more suggestive. However, be careful: a few kilometers upstream from the bridge there is a dam that could be opened suddenly.

Good shoes after rain are an advantage.

The former hydroelectric plant of Giais di Aviano, built at the turn of the twentieth century, is a significant example of industrial archeology. Surrounded by a large park, it is located near the foothills railway (characterized by beautiful stone bridges). In 1908, when it came into operation with two turbines, the Giais power station supplied Udine with electricity with a 45-kilometer line at a voltage of 30,000 volts. In case of breakdowns at the nearby power station, the Giais current could be transmitted to Venice. Its construction is due to the civil engineer Aristide Zenari (Pordenone 1862 - 1944), who was the first to understand the possibility of exploiting the power of the Cellina waters. Noteworthy are the two steel penstocks that fit into the power plant, built by the hydraulic engineer Antonio Pitter (Rorai 1867 - 1936), Zenari's brother-in-law. When the power plant was built, some houses and services were also built next to it for those who worked there. The central chief and some workers lived with their families in these houses.
