Val di Magra and Val di Vara
Val di Magra and Val di Vara is the only Fluvial Park in the Liguria region. Since the rivers wind towards the sea and one river converges into the other, it is possible to see many charming corners and admire the characteristic riparian flora and fauna. Along the river Magra there are paths and cycling routes which serve to different recreational activities (botanic studies, bird waching, environmental photography etc.) since this fluvial environment is one of the most important stopover areas for aquatic birds along the big migratory paths. Val di Vara, which includes a wide territory marked by the same river, catches the eye of the visitor for its precious landscape. This is given by the fact that the scarce human presence allowed the conservation of many charming features. It is therefore in a quite varied landscape that the Vara winds at the bottom of the valley for 60 kilometers from the Codivara spring to the confluence with the Magra.
