Bosco Grande, Nature reserve in Pavia, Italy
The Bosco Grande spans 22 hectares of temperate deciduous forest along the right bank of the Ticino River, featuring oaks and poplars reaching 30 meters.
In 1968, timber merchant Giuseppe Negri donated this forest to the Municipality of Pavia, ensuring its preservation for future generations to experience nature.
The reserve includes a scientific laboratory, educational garden, fruit orchard, and art workshop where children participate in nature-focused activities every Saturday morning.
Two new information boards provide visitors with contact numbers, schedules, and trail maps, while the Amici dei Boschi association manages guided tours from their information point.
The forest contains two specialized paths: the Marsh Trail and the Great Trees Trail, offering opportunities to observe local wildlife including woodpeckers, tits, and deer.
