    Tips

    We are on the southern side of the "Pau" (marsh) of San Giovanni. Here, more than one hundred thousand years ago, the melting of the ice created a large lake between the moraines built by the Balteo Glacier. The subsequent filling process of the lake caused by the growth of aquatic plants and their decomposition gave rise to the large current peat bog. It is a transitional peat bog, with areas of raised bog and areas of low bog, which is home to a variety of plant and animal species typical of humid environments, including some rare or threatened species. The peat bog is protected as a Site of Community Interest (SCI) and is part of the Natura 2000 Network.
