Riserva Naturale delle Falesie di Duino |
| The reserve includes an area of steep calcareous coast made of fossil limestone
of the Cretaceous period and characterized by falesias, which limit the
access to the sea, and some Mediterranean chalk deposits. The high cliffs
of this area are the only example in the whole northern Adriatic sea. The
reserve also includes the portion of sea in front of the cliffs. On the
edge of the brand white falesias that sheer to sea is situated the panoramic
path dedicated to the poet Rilke.. The vegetation of these walls is mostly Mediterranean and the fauna's best examples are the raven, the peregrine falcon and the Blue rock Thrush. |
