Discover Pero: Churches, the Musestre and Walking Routes

Pero combines small-scale local history with routes and excursions that appeal to different travel interests. The main points of interest are the Chiesetta di San Giovanni, the Musestre River and the Camminata del Draghetto. If you would like to include churches, landscapes and physical activity in your travel plans, you will find several clearly distinct points of reference here.

Churches and the Musestre River

The construction of the Chiesetta di San Giovanni in the 12th century marked the emergence of Pero di sopra. The present parish church of Pero, S. Colombano Abate, was built in 1891 in honor of Saint Columban. The two churches therefore refer to different historical periods and give the area a specific historical point of reference.

The Chiesetta di San Giovanni is located in Pero on the Musestre River. This direct connection makes it an especially vivid destination where architecture and the river landscape can be viewed together.

Exploring Pero on foot

The Camminata del Draghetto route is approximately 4 km long and can be completed on foot by children, parents and older people, including with a stroller. The approximate distance gives families and multigenerational travel groups a useful basis for planning their day.

At the Camminata del Draghetto 2026, there was an equestrian demonstration, a carriage ride for children and oversized traditional games. During this Camminata, participants visited local farms and encountered typical animals of the rural surroundings. The event thus combined physical activity, agriculture and shared community experiences.

The route through Pero is available in the Posti Belli app. One published route follows the Musestre River through Pero to Breda di Piave.

A festive date in August

The local organizers announced the return of the Sagra di Pero from August 8 to August 15, 2026. For travel planning within a fixed period, this announced date is a distinct cultural point of reference alongside visiting the churches and taking a walk.
