The program also provides the long-awaited Sunday mornings (at 10.30 am all of the four Sundays of September) at the Bertone, during which it will be possible to witness the release of the white storks from the reintroduction center: they are very touching moment which in March registered the participation of hundreds of families and that will end on the 28th with a music gift for the great ladies of the sky.

On 14th September the bike tour will start from Porta Giulia in Vallazza, and another bike hike has been planned on the 19th of October leaving from Porta Giulia to reach the Arlecchino Park in Bigarello, where besides the visit to the ERSAF forest a theater performance will be also carried out.

On foot or by boat in the EDEN destination "Valli del Mincio" the walk Mantua-Rivalta has been planned on the 27th September, at the end of the walk participants will enjoy a jazz concert. Return by boat (maximum 30 seats available).
