Surrounded by the Julian Alps and featuring a wealth of wide valleys and woods, the Tarvisio Forest is Italy’s largest, spanning 24,000 hectares; the town has a modern look but also an old soul, full of traditions to be discovered.
Thanks to its being located near the border, it is a crossroads of languages and cultures where Italy, Slovenia and Austria meet. Its excellent cuisine includes Friulian, Carinthian and Slovenian specialities.
Tarvisio’s Sanctuary of Mount Lussari is the destination of numerous pilgrims, as legend has it that our Lady Mary appeared in this place.
The Tarvisio area has much to offer to lovers of outdoor activities. Near Tarvisio, Lakes Fusine (joined together by a charmful path), the Montasio Plateau and the Sella Nevea ski resort are a must see.
