Took a boat trip like the rest and most because kids wanted to see the flamingoes and other birds. Agreed with others, yes is not that picturesque but the guide was very well prepared and explained about these ponds that at the beginning I was looking for hills :D
Can reach the beginning of the lagoon by foot from town, nice to have a walk and see those fishing cabins. Good to bike in the area as well.

The journey between the Casoni and the valleys on the motorboat was just as beautiful as the other times.
The view was wonderful with flamingos and other birds.
Too bad that the Moira Guide left out several details that other guides in previous times had explained.
Moreover the explanations in the 2 languages (Italian and English) were not the same in fact the explanations in English were more detailed than those in Italian.
We recommend, however, to get on the upper floor of the ship because in the lower floor you can not see the flamingos. That said, the visit was still interesting and we recommend it.

Despite the mist and a light drizzle, my husband and I were immediately captured by the characteristics of this city, linked together by the many bridges, by the unexpected little squares around the corner, a history from the past but which still fascinates us today. A beautiful romantic walk under a very long portico captivated us. A city definitely worth visiting, especially for those who are full of curiosities to be fulfilled.

A very particular environment where water is the main element.
Visited the Veneto side with a boat excursion next to the clam, oyster and mussel farms.
A very challenging activity that involves entire families
Here nature and people live in continuous contact in a very delicate balance.

My family and I (two children aged 6 and 8) set off from the Coop car park in Comacchio with our bikes, taking the cycle path on the canal bank.
The landscape is very suggestive with the fishermen's houses on the canal, the land is dirt, all flat.
We took a nice ride up to the salt pans and the fishermen's huts (a short ride of 18 km), but it was a shame that the cycle path ended there, leaving room only for the road that we wanted to avoid with the children.
The ideal would be to find a way to end the circular tour entirely on the cycle path.
But it really deserves it 🤩

Experience to do!
Two hours on these ancient and quiet waters where you can also see the flamingos.
Visiting the casoni partly gives an idea of the hard life of the fishermen of those valleys
Moira, the Guide, was very good, competent and answered all our questions

A nice spot to take a walk or take a boat trip. Plenty of birdlife and a brilliant place to spot flamingos - there are loads. There are a few cycle routes to pick from if you fancy exploring on two wheels. You can book a variety of different tours too. If you are into birding look for the observation towers in the area - you can even spot otters from them.

The 2 hour boat trip was marvellous. Our guide Giulia was passionate and knowledgeable about the entire area and particularly the birds and history of eel fishing. We saw flamingoes, osprey, grebe and many others. It is an out of the way place and is wild so not easy to see any other way than by boat, a bargain at 10 euros.

One would think that you can't find any more places with plenty of exotic birds in the middle of civilization - like Italy. But at a short distance from famous touristic cities like Ferrara or Ravenna you can get easily in the middle of a bird-watching paradise. Over 14 000 of flamingos and plenty of other birds are waiting for you. And of course, not only birds but the landscape, sunrises and sunsets, romantic villages - a bit of everything your soul needs when you are tired of streets, statues, museums. Don't miss it.

The Po Delta Park managed by the Emilia Region, although separate from the similar one managed by the Veneto region, is very large, extending south to Ravenna and south-east to Argenta. So it's good to specify which part you visit.
I visited, on a day trip from Ferrara, a small part of the so-called "Valli di Comacchio".
"Valli" is the name given locally to the more or less extensive ponds that dot the coastal areas of the upper Adriatic, from Ravenna to Monfalcone (near Trieste).
The "amphibious" character of these areas is because their very low altitude makes them easily occupied by the waters. The waters can be fresh, by invasion of the rivers, following their floods or course changes; or they can be salted, due to the entry of water from the nearby sea (this is currently the case of the "Valli").
In both cases, the entry of the waters can be favored by the "subsidence", that is, by the progressive soil sinking of by natural compression of the alluvial "mattress" or for other reasons.
The Valli di Comacchio were formed precisely by "subsidence". They are relatively recent, as they are around 1000 years old. They were formed when the sinking of this area was no longer compensated by the silt carried by the rivers: in fact the Reno river, deviated further south, and especially the Po, which moved spontaneously further north, no longer gave the Valli their silt contribution .
When I, young pupil, studied the geography of Italy, in the 1950s, the Comacchio Valleys appeared as a large liquid surface on the map of the Emilia region. But in those years they were the subject of a radical drying up, which reduced them from 550 to the current 130 Km2qs approximately.
The area I visited is called "Valle Spavola". It extends a few kilometers south of the Comacchio town, and in this season (February) it is occupied by numerous colonies of pink flamingos (as well as other, more common, marsh birds, such as cormorants, mallards and shelducks). I was able to visit it on foot, because an embankment separates the Spavola Valley (to the north) from the area of ​​the former salt pans (to the south); therefore it allows you to walk having water on both the right and left. I started from the extreme west point of the embankment (where you can get there by car), at the location of the "Bettolino di Foce" restaurant (closed in the winter season) and I came to the place called "Torre Rossa", on the east bank of the "Valli". The route - one way - is approximately 2.5 Kms.
In a season when navigation in the Valli doesn't work (except perhaps for large groups and by reservation) I recommend this scenic path, which can give an idea of ​​the territory.
Obviously this idea will be more fruitful if you are aware of the natural and human dynamics that have acted on this territory.

Dove si può trovare una guida valida per visitare il delta del Po
Written March 7, 2019
Buongiorno, data la vastitĂ e la complessitĂ delle aree tematiche visitabili, sarebbe meglio capire prima cosa si intenda fare e poi trovare il supporto adatto alla visita:
Ci si può concentrare sulla parte fluviale del delta del Po, sulla parte salmastra delle valli di Comacchio, sulla città di Comacchio, sui reperti archeologici dell'antica Spina romana, sulle aree protette lungo il litorale, sulla pesca ed i porti (Porto Garibaldi) sulla villeggiatura ai lidi (Spina, Estensi, Volano, Scacchi, Nazioni, Pomposa, Porto Garibaldi) o sull'avifauna stanziale o migratoria delle valli (...tra cui fenicotteri rosa, cavalieri d' italia etr..) sulle opere d' arte antiche come l'Abazia di Pomposa , o moderne come la casa museo di Remo Brindisi.....
Consiglierei, una volta deciso cosa fae di rivolgersi ai cari e vecchi Uffici informazioni ed accoglienza turisticha di comacchio che è ilo comune capoluogo della zona più interessante del parco:-

Certamente, le norme non sono così restrittive.
Si tratta comunque di un parco regionale, non recintato, dove vigono norme di salvaguardia per ambiente, flora e fauna sulle quali potrĂ informarsi meglio attraverso il sito del parco.
Siccome è grande in numero di siti e varietà di tipologie, le consiglio di informarsi relativamente alla zona in cui intende visitare.
Buona visita! Marco

Buongiorno,
Sarebbe mia intenzione visitare la cittĂ di Ravenna e il parco delta del Po nei primissimi giorni di gennaio. Mi domandavo quali percorsi a piedi sono agibili in questa stagione e se ci sono possibilitĂ di vedere gli aironi o altre specie di uccelli e se ci sono zanzare ...grazie
Manuela
Written December 27, 2018
Salve Manuela,
Gli aironi le gazzette e i cavalieri d’Italia sono più rari, ma come i fenicotteri rosa, sarebbero uccelli migratori, ma si sono trovati così bene nelle valli di Comacchio, che hanno deciso di trasformarsi in uccelli stanziali e rimanere anche d’inverno.
Un percorso a piedi, per osservarli tutti, interessante e modulabile sulle proprie forze, prevede , in quattro ore circa, o più se ci mettete un pranzo, l’ anello che potrebbe partire dalla stazione di Foce, dietro Comacchio, dalla quale raggiungere le saline , poi la strada romea, quindi porto Garibaldi e Comacchio, dove e riprendere l’ auto o dove mangiare in qualche buon ristorantino (Le Gresine, ad esempio) su uno dei canali del bellissimo capoluogo.
Si può dimezzare il tempo raggiungendo le saline, o da Foce o dagli Estensi e ritornando poi sui propri passi.
In questo periodo non ci sono zanzare,ed anche d’ estate ne sono rimaste alcune, ma solo per rendere plausibile la leggenda che le vuole protagoniste.
Tutte queste lodi alla provincia di Ferrara da un Bolognese.... sono meritate.
Buona gita Marco

I casoni da pesca che ho visitato sono tipo museo con dentro gli attrezzi e gli arredamenti dell’epoca. Decisamente non abitabili. Non so se però in zona ve ne siano altri ristrutturati per questo uso (poco probabile perché sarebbero comunque raggiungibili solo in barca)
