On the banks of the Neiva River, traces of ancient human activities such as mills, sawmills and flax mills that once gave life to the region still remain. Today, this natural setting is home to a rich biodiversity: trout and bream glide through the waters, otters peek out curiously, and in the sky, birds fill the estuary with movement. Among the winged inhabitants, the grey heron, the mallard, the yellow-legged gull and the agile kingfisher stand out.
