along an old mule track. If we own a suitable car and who can accompany us, we can also decide to reach the latter point and start our hike from here. Once in Brognaturo (VV), continue on SP 43 toward Lacina. When you reach the basin that houses Lake Alaco and immediately after the fork leading to the dam of the same name, turn right onto a dirt road. From this point, having left the car, proceed following the uphill road that, having passed some cultivated terraces and a pond on the left, reaches a clearing. From here it continues with a series of hairpin bends. This first part is completely uphill but we can quench our thirst at a fountain and admire enchanting granite outcroppings silhouetted here and there among the beech trees. After about 2 km from the start you reach a clearing with fir and wild apple trees. We proceed straight ahead, for about another kilometer, ignoring the detours until we reach a clearing that immediately on the left presents a fir tree at the foot of which is a small milestone (crossroad &#8220;Pomara&#8221;). We take, then, the downhill road on the right. After about 1 km we will come to a crossroads at &#8220;Croce di Panaro,&#8221; recognizable precisely by the presence of a wooden cross. This point is an ancient pass located in a saddle between the &#8220;Pomara&#8221; and &#8220;Pietra del Caricatore.&#8221; From here, following the road on the left, for long stretches paved in stone, and leaving out detours, we will reach Ferdinandea.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-43dfcbc e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"43dfcbc\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-00289a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"00289a9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"518\" height=\"926\" src=\"https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.41.18.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2220\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.41.18.png 518w, https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.41.18-168x300.png 168w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46f9c6f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"46f9c6f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-785a41b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"785a41b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3e6597d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3e6597d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"636\" height=\"852\" src=\"https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.41.45.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2221\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.41.45.png 636w, https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.41.45-224x300.png 224w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-314c032 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"314c032\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37c6e07 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"37c6e07\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">ANEMONE<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1467cc2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1467cc2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>March and April are the months when we will be able to admire a small flower on the edges of the trail along the way; it is the anemone, a perennial plant adapted to rocky soils that is white, deep blue-purple about 15 cm in color.

The cuckoo is known for its peculiar characteristic of brooding parasitism (it consists of laying its egg inside the nest of other birds) and because its song is associated with the arrival of spring. This graceful bird has, in males, blue plumage at the top, while in females it can sometimes be reddish. In the lower part it is lighter in color with dark transverse stripes. It lives in virtually every ecosystem, although it prefers especially bright forests with rich undergrowth on hills and plains. It winters in southern Africa while nesting in Europe and northern Africa. It feeds on various insects, caterpillars (such as the processionary moth), mollusks and spiders.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12adbe8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"12adbe8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bc45c3c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"bc45c3c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-785c55a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"785c55a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"656\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.26.07-656x1024.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2216\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.26.07-656x1024.png 656w, https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.26.07-192x300.png 192w, https:\/\/parcodelleserre.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Schermata-2022-08-29-alle-17.26.07.png 742w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 656px) 100vw, 656px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4794ae e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b4794ae\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c5a0d8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0c5a0d8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EVAPORITIC LIMESTONE<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-befc8c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"befc8c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Sila, Serre and Aspromonte reliefs are composed mainly of crystalline rocks (granitic and metamorphic) as opposed to sedimentary rocks (calcareous and terrigenous) formed by the precipitation of minerals in seawater, the most common source of these types of formations.
