Valle di Cresciano Forest Reserve

Heading uphill from Cresciano, a beautiful valley bottom awaits us after the first crag. Our path follows a historical route alongside the water, passing through a floodplain wood of national importance. The trail through the great trees is truly unmissable. This dynamic and variegated forest resembles a mosaic dominated by the silver fir, Norway spruce, beech, larch, Scots pine and white alder. The silver fir is particularly predominant: it only features in such numbers in a very few southern Alpine sites.
