Description

Valpredina – the valley of rocks - covers approximately 90 hectares, mainly consisting of mixed forests with rocky and cultivated slopes, and is crossed by the Predina torrent. The forests of the slopes with a southern exposure, with a poor water supply, are inhabited by oaks, ashes and hornbeams. You can make a beautiful walk inside the forest with the possibility, in a couple of hours, of reaching the top of Monte Misma. Among the birds you can encounter are palokärki, muuttohaukka, hiirihaukka, töyhtötiainen and maakotka.
