The WWF Valle della Caccia Oasis is a place of naturalistic interest surrounded by the wonderful setting of the Picentini Mountains Park, the Oasis was established in 1992 and inaugurated in May of the following year. It boasts an extension of 450 hectares and contains 106 protected biodiversity that make it a Site of Community Interest and Special Protection Area, whose management is entrusted to WWF Irpinia, on the basis of an agreement with the Municipality of Senerchia. Thanks to the careful preservation work of such a varied biodiversity, the Oasis allows visitors to rediscover direct contact with nature, allowing themselves to be involved in the beauty of the natural landscape. In the "Nature Trail" that can be undertaken during a visit to the Oasis, you can come across paths and woods of beech, oak and birch trees, where the rare black pine and other precious flora species, such as lilies and colored orchids, but also fauna, such as the wolf, the dipper, the peregrine falcons and the river nightingale live: all this contributes to significantly enriching the uniqueness of an exclusive natural heritage. The stream and its banks are unique in their white color, from which the name Acquabianca derives, made so by the calcareous nature of the area. A beautiful waterfall falls from about 30 meters and smoothes the wall, creating enchanting chromatic plays between light, water and the greenery in which you are immersed; together with the calcareous “Grotta del Muschio”, which opens onto a rock face, contributes to making the atmosphere magical and the walk to discover a place with a thousand naturalistic resources suggestive. Immersed in the emblematic greenery of Irpinia, the WWF Valle della Caccia Oasis lends itself to exciting visits or adventurous routes, in the unique context of uncontaminated nature, to be protected, promoted and enhanced. read less
