Provincial nature reserve - Biotope not established

The biotope includes particular environments, represented by low and intermediate peat bogs set in a landscape context of mixed coniferous woods characteristic of the subalpine plain.
These wetlands, typically mountainous in the mid-latitudes of Europe, are of great naturalistic interest as rare environments not only in Trentino but throughout the Italian Alps.
They also constitute a habitat for particular and exclusive animal species and are of high botanical value due to the numerous vegetation associations that grow in them.

Special Area of Conservation (SAC)

A complex of peat bogs on the mountainous reliefs of the upper Val di Non developed in slope, saddle and glacial cirque positions with little morphology, all in vast clearings in the spruce and larch woods.
The vegetation is that of flat fens, transitional fens and raised bogs; on the outer edge of some fens, there are also patches of pecceta on peat (wooded fens).
