Once, on the other hand, there were many, and the river mouths were transformed into salt pans, which were located on the edge of the coastal cities.
The whole area of the Sečovlje Salina (in Slovenian Sečoveljske soline), the bigger moist environment of Slovenia with its 650 hectares, has been declared a natural park in 2001 and now includes a visitor center and a museum that illustrates both the historical and natural aspect and of this area. |

read more...Val RosandraVal Rosandra (regional nature reserve since 1986 about 746 hectares wide) is located near Trieste between the municipality of Dolina and the Slovenian Erpelle - Cosina (Hrpelje - Kozina), on the south – eastern side of the province. At the center of the valley flows the Rosandra, which makes it the only area in the Karst with a surface river (which is rare in areas characterized by karst phenomena). The creek flows near Klanec (in Slovenia) and after 15 km it flows into the Adriatic near Muggia. The route starts from the car park near the village of Bagnoli della Rosandra, and continues towards the town of Bagnoli Superiore (just few minutes away) where the real path begins, which in the main parts runs along the Rosandra. |
