Le Ali del Frassino and Swarovski Optik

Le Ali del Frassino, nestled in the stunning setting of the Oasi del Frassino, is delighted to announce an exciting new partnership with Swarovski Optik, a world leader in high-precision optical instruments. Together, these two leaders will offer an exclusive birdwatching experience designed for nature and bird enthusiasts.

The project, set within the natural reserve of Lago del Frassino, a protected biotope of community importance (S.I.C.), will bring together a group of experienced birdwatchers who will observe the lake’s rich and varied birdlife. Equipped with Swarovski Optik binoculars, featuring exclusive lenses designed to provide incredibly clear and detailed views, participants will enjoy an immersive experience in the heart of nature, uncovering the secrets of the lake’s birdlife during this particularly interesting migration period.

In November, Lago del Frassino becomes a prime location for spotting various migratory and wintering birds. Among these, enthusiasts will marvel at flocks of Common Pochards (Aythya ferina), which gather in the lake’s waters to overwinter, and Tufted Ducks (Aythya fuligula), whose population is especially large in this area. Visitors may also spot species like the Teal (Anas crecca), Northern Shoveler (Anas clypeata), and, with a bit of luck, birds of prey such as the Marsh Harrier (Circus aeruginosus), seen hunting over the lake during their autumn migration.

This initiative offers a unique opportunity to explore one of the most captivating areas of Lake Garda, a true paradise for wildlife lovers. Indeed, Laghetto del Frassino is recognized as one of the principal wintering sites for various waterbird species, as documented by ornithological studies over recent decades.

“This partnership with Swarovski Optik allows us to offer our guests an extraordinary opportunity to explore pristine nature with top-quality optical instruments,” said the Director of Le Ali del Frassino. “We are thrilled to share the beauty of the Oasi del Frassino with birdwatching enthusiasts and visitors seeking authentic and unforgettable experiences.”
