ill., ril. Un fiume particolare e bellissimo da seguire in bici o in canoa: l'itinerario della Livenza è un percorso ideale per un viaggio tra Veneto e Friuli Venezia Giulia della durata di un weekend. La Livenza infatti, navigabile per quasi tutti i suoi oltre 100 km di corso, è un fiume fuori dall'ordinario che comincia con sorgenti limpidissime (il Gorgazzo, la Santissima), prosegue lungo anse vivaci e piacevoli, e continua con un corso rettilineo verso il mare Adriatico. Nel suo percorso bagna direttamente o attraverso i suoi affluenti, in primis Noncello e Meduna, città e borghi di pregio, come Pordenone, Portobuffolé, Sacile, Motta di Livenza, San Stino di Livenza, Caorle, e attraversa un territorio di notevole interesse dal punto di vista naturalistico. A rendere ancora più piacevole la navigazione o la pedalata ci penseranno i ristoranti e l'ospitalità alberghi e agriturismi, numerosi lungo tutto il percorso. La guida propone due sezioni: una dedicata al percorso ciclabile (suddivisa in due itinerari: da Pordenone a Caorle lungo la sinistra orografica e da Caorle alle sorgenti lungo la destra orografica della Livenza) e una dedicata al percorso navigabile; la guida, inoltre, è arricchita da tutte le informazioni tecniche e turistiche e da una dettagliata cartografia in scala 1:50.000 personalizzata per il percorso in canoa o in bici. Con tracce GPS.
