Tramonti di Sotto, in the Val Tramontina in the Carnic Prealps
The Val Tramontina is an enclosed valley in the Carnic Prealps, north of Pordenone in Friuli, with the Meduna river running through it. Tramonti di Sotto is its main village, at around three hundred and fifty metres, with the Redona reservoir close by and many hamlets scattered over the wooded slopes. It is a large and almost entirely natural territory: built-up land is a tiny share of the municipality.
You reach it by driving up the valley from Meduno, and the Pordenone plain with its services is some way off by car. Traditional houses are stone, with wooden balconies and steep roofs; many have been restored, others need substantial work. In climate zone F, with long and damp winters at the bottom of the valley, insulation and heating matter as much as the price.
Istat, Italy's national statistics office, counted 335 residents in 2023, against 410 in 2011, down 18.3%. The estimated average age is 55.3, against 46.6 in the province of Pordenone, and 38.8% of residents are over 65. Households are small, 1.52 people on average; foreign residents make up 6.3%. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.
Mountain Friuli knows earthquakes well. Tramonti di Sotto is in seismic zone 2 on the Civil Protection scale, like 27 of the 50 municipalities in the province, with an expected acceleration of about 0.253 g. Many houses were repaired or rebuilt after 1976: ask what work was done and what paperwork exists, and for unrenovated stone houses have the structure assessed by a surveyor.
Near the Meduna and its streams, and on the steep slopes, the report checks the official flood and landslide maps for the address. The Revenue Agency's cadastral maps are published.
