Now, next to the ford, there is a comfortable metal walkway

On the border between Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia there is a very beautiful path immersed in nature, which starts from Gruaro and crosses the Versiola river, until reaching the Stalis mills. A historical and naturalistic path in the countryside full of canals and bodies of water.

The Taiedo lakes are ten stretches of water surrounded by vegetation and frequented by fishermen and nature lovers. They were originally pools of water surrounded by a marshy environment; they became as we see them today following the construction of the A28 motorway; in fact, the materials for the construction of the road were obtained from the area of the lakes and then the natural area was completely redeveloped; the last step was the mural that decorates the underpass of the A28 that leads to the lakes in the municipality of Chions, created by Arianna Garlatti, of the Galvani State Institute of Art in Cordenons. https://www.ilgazzettino.it/pay/udine_pay/azzano_valorizzare_i_laghetti_di_taiedo_e_cesena_e_uno_degli_obiettivi_primari-3528587.html

Venchieredo Fountain "Between Cordovado and Venchieredo, one mile between the two towns, there is a large and clear fountain that also has the voice of containing many cooling and healthy qualities in its water. But the nymph of the fountain did not believe that she only trusted the virtues of water to lure the devotees and surrounded herself with such a beautiful horizon of meadows, woods and sky, and with such a hospitable shade of alders and willows that it is in truth a recess worthy of Virgil's brush this where she liked to place her room. Hidden and meandering paths, the whisper of rivulets, sweet and mossy slopes, nothing is missing all around. It is precisely the mirror of a sorceress, that clear blue water that, gushing insensibly from a bottom of tiny gravel, rose to double in her womb the image of such a picturesque and pastoral scene. They are places that make one think of the inhabitants of Eden before sin; and they also make us think without disgust about sin now that we are no longer inhabitants of Eden. There, therefore, around that fountain, the vague girls of Cordovado, Venchieredo and even Teglio, Fratta, Morsano, Cintello and Bagnarola, and other nearby villages, have used to gather on festive evenings since time immemorial. And they stay there for a long time in songs in laughter in conversations in snacks until the mother, the lover and the moon lead them back home. I did not even want to tell you that young men also compete with girls, because it was already something to imagine. But what I intend to note is that, having made the accounts at the end of the year, I believe and affirm that people come to the Venchieredo fountain more to make love than to drink; and besides, more wine is drunk there than water. You know; in these cases it is necessary to obey the sausages and ham of the snacks more than the superstition of passing water. I for myself there were the beautiful vaults to that enchanting fountain; but once only once did I dare to profane with my hand the virgin crystal of her sap. The hunt had led me there, broken by fatigue and burned with thirst; more, my flask of white wine no longer wanted to cry. If I went back now, maybe I would drink it in large sips as if to rejuvenate myself ... "

The church of San Pietro dates back to the sixteenth century and underwent changes in the eighteenth century. The building is simple but articulated: a rectangular hall with a smaller rectangular presbytery and a semi-hexagonal apse. The entrance portal is protected by a portico with three open arched sides. On the top of the façade a small sail with a bell mullioned window. Under the portico you can see a fresco with faded colors which probably represents San Cristoforo, as it happens to see also in other churches. The interior is not visible. (Local guide Google)

The secular oak of Villanova is over 15 meters high and its circumference from the ground measures over 7 meters.

In Villanova we find the church of S.Antonio which dates back to the 14th century. The first document, drawn up by the vicar Nores, in which it is mentioned dates back to 1586. Already then there is talk of the Villanova oak which is called - Oak of the neighborhood - because the meetings of the local heads of the place were usually held around the tree. The oak is over 15 meters high and its circumference from the ground measures over 7 meters. The presumed age is estimated around 5 centuries but popular tradition attributes it to over seven.
