리자넬로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 호수

NATURE QUEEN, I think, could be summed up best. A mountain bike ride immersed in the woods, in the silence, with the surprise of the wetland; it's not uncommon to spot herons and egrets. The arrival at the sea and the journey along the coast to Santa Foca are spectacular.

Incredibly immersed in the Cesine marsh you feel an integral part of nature. Fantastic. We respect flora and fauna... it is a unique environment that is and must be protected starting with us.

You can't get through here for most of the year without getting your feet wet. The water is always about 30 cm high.

along the sheep tracks on the border between Soleto and Sternatia, and a natural depression in a rocky area called Laccu de lu craparu, which translated from Griko means “shepherd’s pond”, during the rainy season allows the collection of water, transforming into a temporary lake. This stagnation allowed shepherds to bring their flock of sheep to drink.

The Le Cesine Nature Reserve and WWF Oasis is the last stretch of coastal marshes that once characterized the Salento coast.

The main avenue leads through Le Cesine and descent into the reserve is only allowed with an authorized guide. The escapade into the interior lasts about 2 hours.

Le Cesine is a nature reserve covering an area of 348 hectares. It was built on part of former swampy and marshy freshwater areas stretching from Brindisi in the north to Otranto in the south. There are many plants growing in the reserve, located on the so-called red list, which includes rare and endangered species. The world of fauna is also impressive, with the spring magic of the flight of thousands of colorful butterflies (including Macroglossum stellatarum, which closely resembles a hummingbird!) and the singing of amphibians on late winter nights (the croaking of a small Hyla intermedia frog, about 4 cm long, can be heard even several kilometers away!) .

The oasis is protected by the WWF and covers over 350 hectares of marshes and wetlands. The type of habitat makes it an ideal place for many species of migratory water birds to stop. Other animals also reside, including reptiles and amphibians, and wolves and wild boars have recently been reintroduced.
