    The Ortazzo was originally a freshwater valley and a paddy field, which later became a brackish area, today characterized by a remarkable alternation of ponds, reeds, Mediterranean vegetation and pine forests. From the lookout tower you can observe the numerous aquatic fauna that populate this nature reserve. Two tables with benches and a convenient bicycle rack are present in the area.

    Mountain biking

    The area of about 400 hectares acquired by the Parco Delta del Po in 2025, the Ortazzo Ortazzino complex, fortunately not subdivided in the early 70s and classified as integral protection zones C and A, will be subject to a restoration of the wet meadows, of the brackish water circulation with the creation of nesting islands and the reintroduction of the Starna italica species, a species extinct in the wild, today present only in breeding.
