Biotopo Marocche di Dro

Biotopo Marocche di Dro is a nature reserve located between Lake Cavedine and Dro town, featuring vast expanses of stone fields surrounded by mountain slopes. The landscape consists of enormous rocky terrain shaped by ancient geological events.

The site was formed by major landslides during the post-glacial period roughly 200,000 years ago. These geological events created the distinctive rocky landscape visible today.

The name comes from the local Trentino dialect and refers to the vast stone fields that define the landscape. These rocky formations shape how visitors experience the place today.

Visitors enter through marked gates that are easy to find. Access is most convenient after exiting the A22 motorway at Rovereto.

The reserve contains footprints of a four-legged dinosaur from 200 million years ago. The tracks likely belong to a Scelidosaurus, a plant-eating reptile from the early Cretaceous.
