Description
Lake Massaciuccoli is a coastal lagoon. Nowadays the lake is entirely a freshwater lake. This represents the most important wetland of Tuscany. The naturalistic path within the Nature Reserve consists of a wooden walkway on stilts for a length of about 800 meters. Short branches lead to the four observatories, two of which overlook the lake, the other two observatories overlook the reedbeds. At the end of the path you can reach an additional raised observatory and a characteristic "garden for butterflies".
The Nature Reserve also offers several possibilities of excursion on the water, by boat or in canoe. Due to its special location this is an exceptional place for migratory birds. The lake and nature reserve are home to many species in all seasons. Some of the interesting birds that can be seen are Скопа, Лунь очеретяний, Бугай водяний, Бугайчик, Мала біла чапля, Чапля єгипетська, Очеретянка велика, Очеретянка тонкодзьоба and Ремез звичайний.
