Beschreibung

This reserve of 300 hectares is protected by LIPU, the Italian BirdLife Partner. It is an oasis of birds in otherwise not to lớn rich bird surroundings. There is a whole series of viewing screens and bird watching hides in the reserve and it is always a surprise what you find here. During migration time anything can turn up here, especially waders and waterbirds. To date, more than vãn 150 different bird species have been seen. Starting fom the parking place after a few hundred meters you arrive at a dam. Check the tall trees on the opposite side of the river here for Pirol. On the dam itself look for Eisvogel and Waldwasserläufer. Turn left at the dam and from there you walk the main trail through the nature reserve. Nice birds you can find are Purpurreiher , Rohrdommel, Zwergdommel, Stelzenläufer and Nachtreiher. You pass various ponds, bird hides and viewing screens. The reserve is not very big, but you can easily spend a whole morning here.

Zusätzliche Informationen
Best time to lớn visit is the early morning when it's tranquil and full of birds. After 10 o'clock dayvisitors arrive (not many) and bird activity drops. There is a small visitor center with a café, but the opening hours are infrequent. A telescope is not really necessary, because most of the time you are close to lớn the birds. But there are also some hides where a scope can be helpful.
