Oasi di Bolgheri

This park is situated between the Tuscany coastline and the railway track.  

It still maintains the same typical aspect of the Maremma and is made up of wooded hedges, meadows and woods which are flooded during the winter period, and ponds.

The coastal woodland area divides the ponds from the wild sea shore where flowers such as the Giglio di mare (sea lily) and the Rucchetta della sabbie (sand rocket) still grow.  The oasis can boat the acknowledgement  “Zona Ramsar”, a very damp area which is perfect for water birds who throughout the winter and during the spring migration period stay here.

As well as a large quantity of bird species the park also offers home to many mammals of which we can find wild boar, fallow deer, roe deer and porcupines; amongst the mammals to be noted is the marsh tortoise.  

The park is open to the public from 1st October until 31st May on Saturdays and Sundays and you must book.  

Entrance to the oasis costs 5,00 Euro.
