The Biotopo Palù di Tuenno is a protected natural area established in 1989, covering 5.56 hectares near Tuenno, in the municipality of Ville d'Anaunia. It is small, but it counts for more than its size would suggest.

The most prominent fauna is undoubtedly that of birds, and the biotope is an important stopping place for migratory species. The nesting species are not many, but among them it is worth mentioning the first confirmed nesting of the little bittern in Trentino.

The list of migratory birds sighted is long: shoveler, garganey, hen harrier, marsh harrier, spotted crake, little crake, lapwing, common snipe, common sandpiper, whinchat, tree pipit and spotted crake's relative, the moustached warbler.

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
