👍👍 This place is heaven on earth Highly recommended.

Reserve of coral reefs & extensive marine life overlooked by rugged cliffs, with boat & kayak tours.

👍👍 We had a great time going down this gorge. Definitely worth a visit! The water is cold, but not freezing. But it is summer right now and 36 degrees outside. There's really no need for a tour guide, you can just drive down the road, follow the signs and you'll find the river. It's well signposted....

Set in a scenic gorge, this celebrated cave system offers guided tours & educational activities.

Nature reserve with brown bears & roe deer in enclosures, plus a mountain garden & small museum.

In addition to its hiking trails, this nature reserve features a lagoon & rustic thatched huts.

👍👍 Very nice place to visit. If you're interested in geology, you may learn a lot about the history of the alps, if you're not, you may still enjoy a "gorgeous" hike in and around the site itself. Be careful, though, even the guided hike through the gorge may prove difficult for untrained or ill-equipp...

👍👍 È un posto magico, incantato...x arrivarci ci vuole un pó di forza di volontà x chi non è abituato a questi percorsi, ma ne vale davvero la pena. Dopo 40 minuti circa di camminata ti si apre il cuore! Bellissimo riposare sull'erba con le mucche e i loro piccolini che pascolano lì vicino! Ps. Il cell...

For a moment I got distracted and my small d...

Huge, scenic regional park with museums, historic buildings & activities such as hiking & cycling.

Biking & walking paths through a protected lagoon habitat with birds such as flamingos & herons.

👍 Purtroppo ci sono andato di domenica, ma anche così è una serie di begli accessi al fiume con diversi spiazzi sabbiosi (anche ampi) circondati da sassi e ciottoli. Le spiagge si trovano in un punto in cui il Trebbia fa un'ansa strettissima, dove si trovano gli accessi più belli e dove il fiume alter...

Complex featuring natural & artificial caves filled with waterfalls viewed from walking paths.

Wildlife park with a drive-thru safari & guided train tours, plus animal feedings & a reptile house.

👍👍 To get here follow the signs - when you reach a car park next to the concession stand - head straight over the ford if the water is low enough and drive to the next car park. Very popular spot. My kids loved the water and it is a basic site but fun. Makes a change from hill towns!

Deer, fox & hundreds of bird species inhabit this large wetlands park & walking/picnicking spot.
