The source area of the Sile is a true natural paradise. A nature trail leads through the area, which is equipped with wooden bridges at exposed points to allow crossing the spring water. Impressive and majestic are the many springs from which the Sile is formed in total. Recommendation: highly recommended!

I Molini di Sotto is a former 19th-century industrial complex used until the 1960s for grinding cereals and as a press. It overlooks the boat basin, once connected to Venice via the Muson river.

Mulino Michieletto (formerly Pamio), the “middle mill”, the smallest of the Scorzè mills. Of sixteenth-century origin, it passed through various owners and was managed by the millers of the Pamio family who took care of its operation and productive activity. Today it is a private property with horse breeding; in addition to the two barns (haylofts) for sheltering vehicles, the two entry holes for the spindles (pins) have been preserved on the south wall. From here, without a doubt, begins the most interesting area from a landscape point of view of the Quattro Mulini Cycle-Pedestrian Path. Leaving the urban area, you immerse yourself completely in the countryside. The path, bordered by a wooden fence, follows the sinuous course of the river and its many bends up to the Mulino Todori, between the localities of Contea and Canove.

The Cosma Mill (formerly Pavanetto) is one of the four currently present in the municipal area, silent witnesses of a time when water was a precious resource and marked daily life. Dating back to the 15th century, as per a document that sets its construction date to 1470, and belonging to the noble families Donà, Contarini, and Zen, it remained active until 1995. It marks the initial/final stage of the Four Mills cycle path completed in 2019.

The Il Mulino Todori (formerly Pamio) stands between the localities of Contea and Canove. The existence of a mill in this area has been known since 1455. Run by as many as three families, all belonging to the Todori branch of the Pamio family, it had three millstones: for maize, for wheat, and for the waste of corn and cobs. The mill was subsequently rebuilt by the noble Soranzo family, who created the adjoining manor house with the architectural characteristics typical of Venetian villas, of which the central trifora can still be identified. The milling activity definitively ceased in the early 1960s. The mill, today privately owned, is located within the Oasi Todori, a municipal green area inaugurated in 201. Characterized by high biodiversity, it currently occupies an area of 2.5 hectares as a refuge and protection area for various species of flora and fauna, including woodpecker, swallow, robin, blackbird, sparrow, finch, water rail. Among the tree species are field maple, hornbeam, poplar, willow, elder, and dogwood.
