Palazzolo dello Stella — Riserva Naturale Foci dello Stella
Friuli-Venezia Giulia
The Stella river, one of the shortest in Italy fed almost entirely by springs, reaches the Marano lagoon through a protected wetland of reed beds and shallow channels near Palazzolo dello Stella. Flat paths follow the reserve's edge, a quieter birdwatching alternative to the region's larger river-mouth reserves.
