Geloi Wetland, Nature reserve in Gela, Italy.

Geloi Wetland extends across clay alluvial soils near the Mediterranean coast, featuring brackish marshes and diverse Mediterranean vegetation covering the landscape.

The conservation area was established in 2017 through collaboration between German organization Stiftung Pro Artenvielfalt and local environmental education center CEA ODV from Niscemi.

The Via Francigena Fabaria pilgrimage route crosses through the wetland area, connecting Agrigento to Gela along a 300-kilometer natural path.

The reserve organizes guided walks, excursions, workshops, and bike rides for visitors to observe white storks and other bird species in their natural habitat.

Over 45,000 aquatic birds migrate through this strategic geographical location between February and April, making it a primary crossing point from North Africa.
