ターリオ・ディ・ポーの湖・トップ17

This trail immerses you in the lagoon landscape of the Po Delta, among embankments, canals, salt marshes, and fish farms. Birdlife is frequently spotted along the route, particularly flamingos, herons, and other species typical of wetlands. It runs through an open and quiet environment, with long stretches of sparse shade: bring plenty of water and protect yourself from mosquitoes, especially in the evening.

A beautiful walk accessible to everyone. Access is free, and parking is available at one of the two restaurants at the ends of the trail.

great walk to do with a good camera around your neck and a good pair of binoculars!

SUMMER 2024 - FERRY ALBARELLA - PORTO LEVANTE: Active Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I have placed the timetable with the photos of this route.

This park extends for more than 700 square kilometers and is the largest wetland in Europe. Since 2015 it has been a UNESCO site and is recognized as a biosphere reserve. The Po delta is dominated by water, by the Po, Brenta and Adige rivers and by the Adriatic Sea, which make this place a habitat for many species, especially birds such as marsh hawks, herons and pink flamingos.

Place where it is easy to find soaking pink flamingos!

A place where the consequences of the mid-20th century extraction of methane gas from the Polesine subsoil are clearly visible. "The subsidence affected almost the entire delta and caused drops that reached maximum values of almost three meters and average values of two metres. This fact, less traumatic, slow to manifest but highly insidious, also had a decisive influence on the hydrographic network of the lower Po and the history of the routes and floods." (Delta Po Adige Reclamation Consortium)

I confirm: the ferry from the left bank of the Po di Levante runs a couple of weekdays and weekends in summer, but with few trips, like two in the morning and three in the afternoon. We gave up on taking it, after Alberella we returned to the starting point up to the Adige embankment (18 km outward and the same number on the return). Pleasant nonetheless
