Riserva Naturale Salse di Nirano

The Salse di Nirano Nature Reserve could be visited independently in compliance with the Regulations and the Founding Act of the Protected Area.

The most suitable time is spring; in summer it is recommended to avoid the hottest hours and above all the area of the gullies, because it is completely exposed to the sun. The Reserve becomes inhospitable after the rains due to the strongly clayey soil. In large groups with more that 10 people it is however required to inform the visit by filling in the attached form. In addition to the prohibitions specified in the attached form, the Reserve Establishment Act and the Management Regulations forbid to:

• damage the lutivoma apparatus (cones) and the vegetation;
• remove and tamper with the mud;
• introduce objects into the apparatus;
• camp or stay longer than the time required to visit the Integral Nature Reserve area;
• access the Integral Nature Reserve area in the event of rain and at least in the next 2 hours;
• enter the Area one hour before dawn and one hour after sunset;
• leave the specially prepared and signposted paths.

Every year the Salse Reserve offers a rich calendar of activities and educational workshops on weekends, that you could download directly from here or search in the events section of this site.

It is possible to take advantage of a service of guided tours and educational workshops for a fee, for schools or groups of minimum 10 people at a price of 4 euros per person for the guided tour and 6 euros for the workshop, downloading and filling in the attached form or requesting additional information to:
