Description

The reserve is characterised by the presence of noble broadleaf forests - including the farnia - growing in areas where water is present.
Crossing this area along the Sarca, one cannot fail to notice the massive presence of a reed-like shrub with an exotic name: Reynoutria japonica or more commonly Japanese Polygonum. This is a species introduced for ornamental purposes that manages to reproduce very quickly, especially along watercourses. Due to its high competitiveness, this species poses a problem for the local vegetation, whose living space is increasingly shrinking.

Additional information

Sarca River Park

Located in south-eastern Trentino, the territory of the River Park covers the course of the Sarca river, along its entire 80 km: an ecological corridor that connects Lake Garda to the Adamello-Brenta Natural Park, through minor protected areas.
It encompasses 27 protected areas including Natura 2000 sites, nature reserves and local areas, with very different habitats that build an important mosaic of biodiversity: many species of flora and fauna are found here, the only one in the whole of Trentino.

Parco Fluviale della Sarca is the new name of the Sarca Network of Reserves, created in 2019 following the merger of the two Networks of Reserves Sarca Basso Corso (established in 2012) and Sarca Alto Corso (established in 2013).
The leader of the River Park, which covers the territory of no less than 27 municipalities, is the BIM del Sarca.
