Mount Matajur,
dominating the
territory of Savogna,

and most easily
recognizable mount in the
Natisone Valleys,

An asphalt road leads to
Rifugio Pelizzo. At the foot
of the mount is the
neighbourhood of

particularly lovely as the early
1900s ones by
Jacum pitōr at Dus,
Montemaggiore
and Tercimonte.
