Biotopes are protected natural areas with lakes, river mouths and marshes
Biotopes are generally wetlands where some areas of vital importance for the survival of rare animal and plant species are under natural protection. Following the establishment of national and natural parks, biotopes are the most recently designated protected areas of Trentino and were introduced in 1987 with the aim of preventing the disappearance of some essential natural areas. Today Trentino features about 70 different biotopes.
