Description
Le Falesie di Duino Nature Reserve includes high and steep limestone cliffs and the strip of sea in front of it. An area of 107 hectares. The cliffs are bordered by the beautiful Rilke path (a homage to the poet Rainer Maria Rilke). The path runs about one kilometre along the karst cliffs. More than 150 species have been observed in the reserve, most of them migratory, which stop in the reserve to rest and feed, while there are 45 regular or irregular breeding species. Among the birds you can encounter in the area are Yellow-legged Gull, European Shag, Peregrine Falcon, Alpine Swift, Common Swift, Eurasian Jay, Common Eider, Rock Dove and Blue Rock Thrush.
