Po Delta Park: discover the territory and the Natural Park
Po Delta Park
The Po Delta Park, with its characteristic alternation of land and water, islands and canals, is a broad geographical area that stretches from Veneto to Ravenna, in a sequence of environments including forests, fresh and salt water valleys, salt pans, dunes and pine forests of rare beauty.
A true mosaic of ecosystems, with over 300 bird species that make the park one of Europe's most important ornithological areas. A vast natural heritage to discover by bike, on horseback or by boat: it's a must for nature lovers and birdwatchers.

Anello della Donzella
It starts from Porto Tolle, along the right bank of the Po of Venice; it passes through Scardovari, a charming fishing village and home to a large fish market, and Bonelli, a charming village with traditional 'deltizie' houses featuring large cube-shaped chimneys; it ends right on the unspoiled beach of our holiday village.
La Via delle Valli Sud
Perfect for birdwatching and nature photography enthusiasts.
From Porto Levante you can reach the Valle Bagliona, famous for its large lagoon-like water mirrors, blazing sunsets, coots, herons and flamingos, the park's real superstars. Next, you go up the left bank of the Po, considered the most beautiful due to the wealth of birdlife that populates it and the incredible variety of trees. Lastly, you'll cross the Boccasette bridge and get to the beach for a regenerating swim.
