Sesto al Reghena

Discover

The complex of the Burovich meadows owes its name to the family from the Bay of Kotor, the Burovich de ‘Szmajevich, the last owners of the complex before its acquisition by the Province of Pordenone. The meadows represent a unique testimony of agricultural arrangements between the 18th and 19th centuries. On the left of the Reghena river, aligned and contiguous plots to stable meadows, about thirty meters wide, stretch forming large green bands, joined by the trees lining the ditches.

It is precisely in these meadows that a path comes to life, transforming into a walkway, first crossing and then skirting this area of about ten hectares, a fantastic “vegetal architectural complex.” The trees are typical of the area: elms, oaks, maples, mulberries, hornbeams, which provide a habitat for a varied birdlife, squirrels, and occasionally quick appearances of foxes. In the spaces where there are no large tree specimens already mentioned, we find a complex shrub vegetation, which includes; hazel, hawthorn, cornelian cherry, wild rose, blackthorn, and maple hedges.

The Province of Pordenone, with funding from the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region, has provided for the acquisition and interventions for the restoration and enjoyment of the area. The place is dedicated to those who love walking while observing the signs of nature and human effort, which together have determined its characteristics and identity.

The natural outcome of the walk to the Burovich Meadows is the Premarine lake: it is a quarry lake appropriately and expertly renaturalized.
