Beautiful floodplain area between Gualtieri and Boretto. Paths, beaches and now also two wrecks of the Second World War re-emerged from the dry Po. Really worth a ride.

Naturalistic area on the bank of the Po river. It is believed that the name is due to the concession, in 1945, of this territory to a group of former prisoners of the Second World War. At the end of the war, the local authorities tried, in this way, to reintegrate former fighters and concentration camp prisoners into the world of work. The main activity was the exploitation of the wood present in the area.
