our journey on the prosecco road continued heading to San Pietro di Feletto.
from the quite elegant town center of Conegliano, we moved into a quiet rural area. this itinerary is loved by cyclist and cycling tourists, too.
the road goes up to the hills, the landscape is a color palette of greens, dotted with farmhouses and agriturismi. the small church steeples stand out against the sky, as landmarks.
arrived in San Pietro di Feletto, the best stop you can make is the Pieve. in the Middle Ages, a pieve was a rural church with a baptistery, upon which other churches without baptisteries depended.
this is a perfect place to admire the scenic lookout, you almost have a 360' view over the hills.
the Feletto's Pieve dates back to the VIII century, and it probably was a pagan roman altar before that.
