Pollino National Park

Where is
It covers 182 000 hectares, along the mountain range Pollino and Orsomarso, between Calabria and Basilicata. Covering the provinces of Matera, Potenza and Cosenza, for a total of 55 municipalities.

one time was a crucial junction in southern Italy, a result of various dominations have been going over the past centuries, the area of \u200b\u200bPollino fascinates the uniqueness of the historic buildings and preservation of natural landscapes. Here at the turn of the sixteenth century, settled Albanian communities, which are still intact and customs.

Why visit the immense wealth of flora, pine stands loricato symbol of the park and this up to a height of 2200 meters. La Grotta del Romito, at Papasidero, is one of the oldest archeological sites and more important in Europe, for the discovery of prehistoric human remains of more than ten thousand years ago.

Description Established in 1993, the Pollino National Park is the largest in Italy. Among the impressive mountain massifs stand out the top of Serra Dolcedorme (2267 meters) and the Monte Pollino (2248 m) which gave the name to the park.
is crossed several rivers, including the Sinni (97 kilometers) from the reservoir crossed Monte Cotugno, the largest dam in the clay of Europe, and Lao (67 kilometers), which gives its name to the State Reserve Lao River Valley.
The vegetation is very rich and differs according to altitude: up to 800 meters prevails if the Mediterranean (juniper, arbutus, oak) and near the mountain peaks dominate the oak and mixed forests. In the high-end, up to 2000 meters, the peaks are covered with beech trees.

Curiosity
In the Valley of the Mercure were found interesting palaeontological findings that can be seen in the Museum of Natural History in the Round.
The Albanian community in this area is among the most deeply rooted in Italy: St. Paul's Albanian and Civita, who have preserved intact the characteristics of agro-pastoral house the Museum of Civilization Arbëreshe protecting numerous objects, tools and costumes.

Useful

The winter season is characterized by intense skiing, that excel sees cross-country skiing and mountaineering.
The rivers of different length allow you to go rafting and canoeing, while the trail attracts hikers and mountain bikers.
In the caves you can do exercises to caving, to discover details of the exceptional physical and biological environments analyzed. For information

The spillway No 1, consists of a spillway 34 m long straight, located on the right bank. The tap water is collected by a gutter that directs the tunnel No 1. To prevent the tunnel is pressurized at the end of the gutter has been placed for a sector to restrict the flow transits.

The spillway No 2, consists of a spillway in the field to cup (radius 14.60 m) 30.58 m long, located on the left bank. The tap water is collected in No relief tunnel 2.

discharge of middle distance running, has two lights in the tunnel No grafts 2 at the base of the relief. The two lights are enclosed by two pairs of gates in size 3.20 x 2.40 m

The bottom outlet is formed by a branch that is inserted into the tunnel No 1. In the aforesaid branch is located the control room of the gate-off (2.50 mx 3.60 m).

geological features - Monte Cotugno

The reservoir basin that develops in the clay and clay formations - marly Pliocene-Calabria, and blocked downstream from a tongue of land which has a predominantly stone prepliocenici almost transverse to the trend of the watercourse. The water resistance of different formations than preplioceniche quellle Pliocene-Calabria, gave rise to the early formation of a valley about a mile long and an average width of two hundred meters.
E 'in this valley that developed the survey for the location of the section of the barrier is therefore the result of a choice dictated by the geological and geotechnical characteristics of these formations as well as the morphology of the places. In the section are restricted
Varicolori clays and alternations of sandstone, limestone and marl of flysch prepliocenico marly clay, covered in places by land from extensive landslides and all with very unfavorable geotechnical characteristics, the problems posed technical solutions that would lead to costly and inevitably subject to uncertainty and high risks.
Under the chosen area for the tax instead of the dam follow one another continuously from the valley upstream of the Miocene marl, and sandstone of middle Pliocene marly clays of the Pliocene-Calabria. The dam
committed to the entire width of the complex consisting of two teams both Pliocene land of fantastic features. The second is virtually waterproof. In this training should be to close the seal.
The formation of clay surfaces on taxes while the dam in the valley is covered with gravel-sandy alluvial material transported by the river Sinni and a thickness of around 10 meters.
