The best MTB trails around Moriago Della Battaglia

The church is grander on the outside from afar. Not so great close up and the interior

Whoever wishes to say a short prayer to Christ the Redeemer in this sanctuary may perhaps use the following text by San Francesco (Francis of Assisi), which he often and gladly spoke, and which he even left to posterity in his spiritual testament: + »We adore you, Lord Jesus Christ, [here] and in all your churches throughout the whole world, and we praise you, because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.« The Franciscan Peter Fobes OFM comments on this in a publication as follows: “He expands the faith in the presence of God in the space where he says the prayer to all the churches in the world. He wishes to adore him who has redeemed the world in all the holy places of the world.”

The parish church of the Most Holy Redeemer, located in Santa Croce del Montello in the municipality of Nervesa della Battaglia, is a significant place of worship for the Diocese of Treviso. The first structure was built between 1899 and 1900, and was opened for worship precisely on the occasion of the Holy Year of the Redeemer. During the First World War, the building found itself at the heart of the fighting along the Piave line and suffered almost total destruction. It was rapidly rebuilt on the old foundations between 1920 and 1922, and then enlarged in the thirties with the addition of the side aisles and the bell tower. The building today presents itself in a neo-Romanesque style, with a stone facade and a three-nave interior embellished with a checkerboard floor in Verona and Botticino marble, while the apse houses the statues of the Redeemer and Saint Joseph.

The Mire road winds through the territory of Corbanese, a hamlet of Tarzo, representing one of the most spectacular stretches of the Prosecco hills. This ridge itinerary ideally connects the area of Tarzo with that of Vittorio Veneto, offering a privileged perspective on the famous "feuds" of the area. The route is characterized by a succession of ups and downs that cut through high-altitude vineyards, where the slopes become extreme and cultivation becomes art. Along the Mire, the horizon opens to the south onto the Trevigiano plain and to the north onto the Belluno Prealps, creating a unique visual contrast between the geometric rigor of the rows and the wild nature of the peaks. It is an iconic place for those seeking silence and the raw beauty of the territory, far from the more trafficked valley routes.

Located at the foot of the Treviso Prealps, the Abbey of Santa Maria di Follina is one of the greatest masterpieces of late Romanesque and Cistercian Gothic style in Italy. Originally founded by Benedictine monks and brought to its greatest splendor by the Cistercians in the 13th century, the abbey amazes with the harmony of its proportions and the spirituality it emanates. The true jewel of the complex is the cloister, completed in 1268: an architectural masterpiece where paired, single, or spiral-decorated columns support elegant arches, creating a unique play of light and shadow. Inside the church, the majestic altarpiece and the statue of the Madonna of the Sacred Chalice make the site a vibrant pilgrimage destination even today. A place where the art, silence, and history of the wool-making monks are inextricably intertwined.

Located in a picturesque position along the road connecting Cison di Valmarino to Follina, the small Church of Madonna delle Grazie is an enchanting example of rural sacred architecture. The building features a sober facade and a welcoming portico, historically intended to offer shelter to wayfarers and pilgrims traversing the valley. Inside, the church preserves an atmosphere of authentic peace, with frescoes and decorations celebrating the Virgin's protection over the community and the harvests. This sanctuary is particularly beloved by the local inhabitants for its simplicity and its deep connection to the territory. Its location, immersed in greenery and surrounded by the silence of the Prealps, makes it an ideal destination for a reflective stop during a walk among the villages, confirming the spiritual and scenic vocation of this corner of the Marca Trevigiana.

The Colline di Cobertaldo represent one of the most authentic and evocative expressions of the Treviso wine-growing landscape, nestled in the heart of the Prosecco Superiore DOCG area. This natural amphitheater is characterized by steep slopes and old vines that draw perfect geometries along the hillsides. The unique microclimate and the mineral composition of the soil give the grapes a distinctive sapidity and elegant aromas, ranging from white flowers to tart apple. Walking among these rows means immersing yourself in a heroic peasant tradition, where each bunch is still cared for by hand, offering a sensory experience that combines history, effort, and scenic beauty.

The "La Tradotta" cycle path is a suggestive 20-kilometer cycle and pedestrian route that follows the track of the old Montebelluna-Susegana military railway. The name derives from the trains that, during the Great War, transported troops and supplies towards the Piave front. The route, predominantly flat and immersed in greenery, connects Montebelluna to Nervesa della Battaglia, running along the slopes of Montello. Along the way, you will encounter the remains of old signal boxes and stations, as well as historical monuments and educational panels that recount the events of 1917-18. It is an ideal itinerary for families and history enthusiasts, offering a direct link between modern slow mobility and the memory of the Treviso territory.
