Vegro ("dry meadow") on the Euganean Hills with interesting summer species.
Just above the beautiful medieval village Arquà Petrarca, this area belongs to the Natural Park Colli Euganei. It is mostly dry meadows (locally called "vegri") with beautiful views on the hills themselves and the plain. The best seasons for birdwatching are spring and summer, with breeding грлица, црногрла стрнарка, мало црноглаво грмушарче, козодој, Пупунец, славејче. полска трепетилка and орел змијар are also possible summer visitors.
Also a good area for butterflies. It can be crowded (hikers, mountain bikers) during sunny weekends and unfortunately it is not uncommon to come across motorbike riders on the paths (illegally).
Parking on the side of secondary roads. Area best seen by walking.
In summer, bring enough water (temperatures can get high and there are not many trees around) or get there in the late afternoon.
