The Po Delta is a mosaic of marshes and woods, full of interesting fauna, especially birds. The delta lies on the main migrating roots between the North of Europe and the African and Southern European winter roosts.

The international importance of the Delta has been recognised by the Ramsar Convention. Many species of birds can be found there; tufted ducks, red herons, coral gulls, seapeckers, plovers, bitterns, egrets, scoopers, fishpeckers, grey herons, herons, kingfishers, reed martins, buntings and many others. Amongst the water life there are carp, tench, barbel, pike eels and many other species.

But it is the march atmostphere that makes this area magical with towers rising out of the flat landscape and the feeling of Nature at its wildest in contact with man.

The Great forest of Mesola dates back to Medieval times and at a certain point it covers the highest dunes with domestic pine whereas on the plains there main species of trees are Oak, Poplar and Ash.
Immersed among the rushes there are waterlilies, nenùfaro, water tails, bladderwort, flowering rush and yellow lily which surround the rarer examples of waterlily and water gentian.
