An e-bike route mainly on paved roads for families who want to spend a day surrounded by the nature and history of the Belluno valley.
The excursion begins in Busche and following the Claudia Augusta cycle path, we head towards the village of Lentiai, where in the Crivellaro square stands the 16th-century Archpriest Church of Santa Maria Assunta, part of the diocese of Vittorio Veneto and a National Monument, whose coffered ceiling is the work of the painter Cesare Vecellio.
Then, along the cycle path we immerse ourselves in the countryside of Mel, crossing villages like Bardies, Tiago, and Villa di Villa until we reach the Castle of Zumelle, a symbol of the Zumelle territory.
After a refreshment and a visit to the castle, our tour continues towards the Azzurra cave, an enchanted place hidden in the woods near the castle. A descent takes us to the inhabited center of Mel where an aperitif awaits us in one of the most beautiful villages in Italy before returning to the starting point.
