Pichea Ridge - Rocchetta

Special Area of Conservation (SAC) - Special Protection Area (SPA)

The site covers the ridge area of the south-eastern part of the Cadria limestone group: from the more precipitous and elevated Corno di Pichea to the SE to the rounded profiles of Cima d'Oro and Bocca di Giumella.
The vegetation consists mainly of alpine and subalpine grasslands on the sunny slopes and subalpine bushes sloping down into beech woods on the north-facing slopes.

Description

The contingent of endemic species is decidedly appreciable. It is also significant that many entities with a range centred on the Lombard Pre-Alps reach their eastern distributional limit here.
The locus classicus of Hypochoeris facchiniana is included within the site.
A pass of international interest for the transit of many medium and long-range migratory species in the late summer and autumn (post-reproductive migration).
Priority habitat 6210 (wonderful orchid blooms) with 0.5% coverage of the Site.
