Riserva Naturale Monte Navegna e Monte Cervia

 

The Environment

Forests and lakes, gorges and streams

Forests and lakes, gorges and streams: this is the charming scenery the visitors will enjoy when they will find themselves surrounded by the beauty of Mt. Navegna and Mt. Cervia.
The forests are dominated by imposing beech trees surrounded by maples, while at lower altitudes there are chestnut trees and centuries-old oaks. The undergrowth is rich in wonderful orchids, violets, narcissi, and anemones.
If the vegetation forms a wonderful scenery made of chiaroscuro effects, shades, sun rays breaking among the trees, the wildlife variety defines the environmental value of the whole area. Among the others, the wolf and the wild cat, important and elusive animals. Besides them, there are the golden eagle, the goshawk, the sparrowhawk, and the wallcreeper; among the water ponds and near the resurgences, it is possible to find the spectacled salamander and the yellow-bellied toad.
Natural features combine with archaeological finds and ancient human settlements. Our past recalls the ancient relationship between man and nature. A relationship that still lives here in all its authenticity.
