Beschrijving

Lagoni di Mercurago was built to protect the six circles of moraines that formed around Lake Maggiore during the last Ice Age. The heart of the area is formed by wetlands where numerous bird species can be seen. The extensive forests that characterize this protected area consist mainly of oak, birch, Scots pine and alder, but also include chestnut and acacia trees. You can see a mix of forest birds and water birds.

Four themed trails have been created to discover the Lagoni di Mercurago. The blue path takes you through the wetlands, the red through the forests, the purple takes you past the archaeological finds and the orange path shows you all the productive activities that take place in the park. A path of about ten kilometers long has also been created. The circular walk indicated on the map is about 9 km. Along the route you cross many lagoons, which means there are a lot of mosquitoes, so it is advisable to wear long pants and have mosquito repellent with you.
