Riserva Naturale regionale Valle Cavanata

As a birdwatcher it was amazing to discover so many bird species so easy to observe. It was not in my plan to visit this place and I spend most of the day in the nearby Isola della Cona. I arrived only at sunset to take just a look at this place and didn't expect to much. But it was a pure magic to see all this birds at one place. And for free.

Free entry. The person in the office is very nice, he will tell you where to go and the path is clearly indicated. Not many ways where to go though. Unfortunately the lack of water this summer changed negatively the look of the park and many birds were not there (sometimes nothing to see in the watching spots). The flamingos also were quite far to be observed. I suggest to go in a period when there's more water, so more birds, and definitely go with binoculars

Great place, easy to reach, hundreds of flamingos

Small but precious natural reserve: you can easily see flamingos and a family of purple herons roosting, besides white herons etc. Very good 2-story observation hide, with available binoculars and elevator

Right at the lagoon of Grado the nature reserve really convinces with large green areas and biodiversity. We saw lots of animals however mainly birds but nutrias as well, while on a biking tour through the area. A few people are on the move with bicycles here. Lots of rivers and ponds. Know that flamingos are only during summer time here when it’s warm in Europe.

This is one of the few places in Europe where birds can rest during their seasonal migration flows. More than 300 species ensure such a relevant biodiversity, and a highly motivated group of naturalists, scientists, guides and volunteers help to preserve the place against natural hazards and man-made changes. Guided visiting is very comfortable led by beautiful people, so in case you're nearby during your trips, use a unique opportunity to observe birds, mammals, vegetables and insects closely in their natural environment.

Great place for bird watching; if you're lucky, you may even spot some deer. Calm place to reconnect.

Saw a few birds, but no flamingos:) a nice, well maintaned wallpath by the way, but no shades on a sunny day.
