Gargano National Park

The Gargano National Park is a national park in the province of Foggia in southern Italy. Aside from the Gargano promontory from which it takes its name, it includes also the Tremiti Islands archipelago and the wetlands Lago Salso. It is the largest park in Apulia.
The National Park of Gargano is one of the few national protected areas efficiently contributing to the "un Bosco per Kyoto" project, which in 2007 has involved several schools in the realization of projects for a social and responsible tourism. It is one of the most appreciated areas, unique for the decrease of fires and for the politics of environmental awareness.
In the park many species of wild orchids grow, including several of Ophrys, bee orchids. It is one of the most biodiverse spots in Western Europe, and has 350-year-old beech trees.
