Fondo Toce Natural Reserve, Regional nature reserve in Verbania, Italy
The Fondo Toce Natural Reserve covers 361 hectares at the intersection of the Toce River and Lake Maggiore, featuring extensive reed beds and wetlands.
The reserve gained official protected status in 1990, establishing a dedicated management system to preserve its ecological resources and natural habitats.
The reserve contains numerous observation points where researchers study migratory patterns of birds and document over one hundred different animal species.
Visitors can explore the reserve through multiple cycling paths that connect Lake Maggiore to Mergozzo, with direct access from Verbania railway station.
The water caltrop, Trapa natans verbanensis, grows exclusively in these waters, making the reserve a critical conservation site for this native plant species.
