_________________________

Italiano: Zona paludosa formata da un ansa dismessa del Torrente Agogna con fragmiteto e saliceto. Il meandro fu isolato dal corso attivo del torrente, in seguito ad opere di raddrizzamento dell’alveo realizzate intorno alla metà degli anni cinquanta. Il bosco planiziale che ora caratterizza l’intera area, è stato ricostruito, a decorrere dal 1991.

Access

Oasi Agogna Morta is situated between Basso Novarese and Nicorvo. Driving along the road that leads from Nicorvo to Robbio Lomellina, turn right in the direction of Cascina Bosco, go past the farmhouse and after 7/800 meters at a V-shaped telephone pole turn right and after a hundred meters park the car and start birding following the path that runs to the right. Good photo opportunities of herons in flight or perched on the nests.
