Top 8 Lakes around Pravisdomini

The Sanstino territory was characterized in its southern part by large lagoons and marshes until a few decades ago. Until the first half of the 20th century, these environments proved very harmful to humans, in various aspects, as they were a source of diseases, such as malaria, and were not sufficiently productive. Thus, with major land reclamation works, the land was taken from the water to make it cultivable and to obtain products that allowed many families to live. However, the lagoons were also a huge reservoir of biodiversity with many species of animals and plants that were largely destroyed during the land reclamation operations. It is also for this reason that, within the project for the historical reconstruction of the Bandiziol and Prassaccon woods, it was desired to leave a further mark of what the territory and landscape of S. Stino once were, by creating a wetland area, partly similar to the numerous wetlands once present even within the woods, called "bassone". This intervention is not only an operation of "philological" recovery of the pre-reclamation hydraulic system but, above all, presents a significant environmental value as it reconstructs the natural habitat of various bird species. The small lake is located in the eastern part of the Bosco di Bandiziol, covers an area of approximately 10,000 sq m and has a rounded shape with small islands within it. To better reproduce different lake habitats, the small lake has varying depths, from a few centimeters to over 2 meters, thus offering many bird species the opportunity to find a suitable environment to stay. In fact, in the shallower waters and marginal areas, it is possible to see herons, egrets, plovers, mallards, and other surface ducks. In the rest of the lake, there are divers, cormorants, and diving ducks that find food in open water or on deep bottoms. The islands and the winding perimeter shapes were created specifically to allow the avifauna to hide and find refuge, so that it can be disturbed as little as possible by human presence. In fact, the conformation of the banks and the vegetation (reeds, herbaceous and shrubby vegetation) offer all the necessary environments for the rest, feeding, and nesting of birds.

A great unpaved trail through the forest and along the Lago delle Premarine. The border between Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia runs through the middle of the lake.

The Cesena lakes are a wetland of great naturalistic and wildlife value.

The Palù del Bandiziol is a wetland formed by a sulfur spring that, at its source, gives off the characteristic smell of rotten eggs. This wetland is of great naturalistic value due to the presence of numerous bird species.

These little lakes are beautiful

Attention in the Prassacon woods the section is closed for work on the 3rd lane and it is not possible to continue to complete the lap

The Cesena lakes of Azzano Decimo are a natural oasis for many species of aquatic birds and a paradise for sport fishing.
