The Livenza ( Furlanic : Livence , Venetian : Łivènsa ) is a 112 km long river in northeast Italy . It rises from several karst springs at a height of only about 50 m above sea level at the southern foot of Monte Cavallo near Polcenigo and crosses the area of Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia in a south-easterly direction . It flows into the Adriatic Sea at Porto Santa Margherita near Caorle . The Livenza forms the drainage area between the Piave and Tagliamento , around Pordenone , Conegliano and Oderzo .
