RISERVA NATURALE dei CANNETI di DORMELLETTO
This area,
157 ha. of cane thicket on the south-west shore of
Maggiore Lake, is
important for the fauna. It represents one of the last examples in the Novara
province, with also the Piana di Fondotoce,
of a transition zone between land and water to a prevalent spontaneous
vegetation made up of cane fields. The importance of this presence is given to
the fundamental ecologic function carried out by the cane field environment. In
regulating water levels, depuration and absorption balanced by substances, even
harmful, put in the water. Particularly important are the nearby wood zones and
common reed fields for the building of a fundamental habitat for the nest
builders and the wintering of numerous ornithological species.
