According to the hypothesis by Alpago Novello:
Tthe route follows the mountain bike itinerary and therefore goes along the Roman route backwards The Via Claudia Augusta may have reached Cesio Minore and gone by Cesio Maggiore. From here towards Marsiai and then to Formegan, on a crossroads between the Claudia Augusta and a Roman trade route going from Feltre to Belluno (the meeting point may have been the old church). From Formegan to Campo, the route may have crossed diagonally the several pieces of ground where excavations keep bringing to light archaeological relics such as tombs and coins. After the stream Vesés, indicating, together with the Terche stream, the boundaries of the two municipalities of Feltria and Bellunum, the route goes by the present church of S. Marco, known as "S.Marco di Via Pagana". Slightly southwards is the small church of S. Lorenzo di Grigher (1393), considered in a neutral territory in respect of Belluno and Feltre and therefore deputed as place for the bishop's election of the two dioceses formerly united. (After a long period of separation they are still today ruled by the same diocese). The route towards Nave (the toponym indicates a pontoon bridge to cross the Piave) leads then to Tiago, crosses its centre, continues towards S.Donato (Longobard church) and reaches the basin of the Zumelle Castle, whose structure certainly presents Roman origin.

According to the hypothesis by Luciano Bosio:
Coming from the plain and after having gone by Falzè di Piave, the Via may have continued along the left side of the Piave River and then entered the valley. Going by Valdobbiadene it may have kept the left side and have gone through Vas (it may have not passed through the Zumelle Castle and Praderadego, as suggested by Alpago Novello). The following route leads to Vas - Marziai - Busche - Cesiomaggiore - Feltre - Artèn - Castel Tesino.
