The Salina di Comacchio: Between Nature and Traditions

Embark on a fascinating journey into the heart of nature. Accompanied by our expert environmental guides, you’ll uncover the rich history of the old Comacchio salt pan, a vast expanse of over 600 hectares, where a historic facility dating back to the Napoleonic era still stands. This site highlights the Comacchio's ancient role in salt production, a tradition that dates back millennia.

With the cessation of salt extraction in 1984, human activity has been absent from the salt pan, allowing it to transform into a thriving natural sanctuary. This peaceful refuge now hosts numerous species of waterfowl, including the graceful pink flamingo, which finds the ideal conditions here for nesting.

Tailored for small groups and organized groups, this experience invites you to immerse yourself in a pristine landscape, breathing in the rich history and vibrant biodiversity that make this protected area truly unique.

The service is by reservation only.
