Oasi delle Grave di Negrisia
The spectacular natural reserve of Negrisia consists of a precious and delicate ecosystem characterized by an impressive biodiversity of fauna, flora, and trees, nourished by the waters of the Piave on the border with Ormelle.
The splendid tree species that characterize the wooded site include valuable varieties such as White Willow, Black Poplar, Black Alder, surrounded by rich herbaceous and shrubby vegetation. The varied bird fauna makes the lush territory of the oasis the ideal place for bird watching enthusiasts.

Villa Loschi in Ponte di Piave
Located at Via Postumia 29, 31047, municipality of Ponte di Piave in the province of Treviso (TV), Villa Loschi is a wonderful 18th-century manor house belonging to the eponymous Venetian family and recently restored to its former glory thanks to a series of careful renovation and restoration works made necessary after the heavy damage that the majestic building had suffered during the Great War.
The sumptuous building develops over two floors topped by a characteristic tower overlooking the Postumia.
Of considerable value are the external decorations that recall the features of Art Nouveau, making Villa Loschi and the radiant natural setting in which it is located one of the most valuable elements of the artistic, architectural and historical heritage of the Region.
Parish of Levada and Church of San Bonifacio
Located at Via della Vittoria, 23 in Levada di Ponte di Piave (TV), the construction of the splendid place of worship dates back to the early 1910s.
The salient façade is divided into three vertical sections, the central one bearing the massive wooden door preceded by a suggestive porch adorned with pinnacles, whose structure recalls the entrance of the 20th-century church of Saletto di Piave (a hamlet of Breda di Piave).
Visit the Casa Museo di Goffredo Parise
The Casa Museo di Goffredo Parise is located at Via Giuseppe Verdi, 1, 31047 Ponte di Piave, province of Treviso (TV).
After leaving the nearby Casa delle Fate, a charming house immersed in the floodplain scenery of Gonfo in Salgareda, the great writer from Vicenza moved in 1984 to the ancient restored barchessa in Ponte di Piave where he would spend his last years.
Aware of the severity of his health condition, Goffredo Parise had moved to this property due to its proximity to the hospital where he had to undergo therapies and dialysis.
Visit to the Museo della Grande Guerra
Located a few steps from the Casa Museo di Goffredo Parise, the museum retraces through an exciting exhibition itinerary the salient moments of the decisive battles along the course of the Piave, along whose banks the daring and spirit of sacrifice of the Italian soldiers determined the outcome of the Great War.
Photographic and cartographic documents, as well as various tools of deep evocative value, allow you to rediscover the endless moments that marked the days on the front before and during the Battle of the Solstice, one of the most bloody and crucial battles that saw the Italian army and the Austro-Hungarian army opposed.
For those wondering what to do in Ponte di Piave and wanting to discover firsthand the legacy left to us by the soldiers, many very young, who fought and died to defend our Homeland, visiting the museum of the First World War recently inaugurated in the municipality of Ponte di Piave will be a meaningful and moving experience.
