The character and atmosphere of the exclusive and authentic property, offers guests a true sense of peace; celebrating nature and its infinite benefits.
WHERE MAN LIVES WITH
the Fauna
The area is home to a staggering number of animals: from ungulates, such as roe deer, mouflons, red deer, fallow deer and wild boar; to rodents, such as porcupines, squirrels and dormice. Among the carnivorous mammals, in addition to the wolf, which in recent years has spontaneously returned to the Pistoia Apennines, recomposing those natural balances that had been lost, there are foxes, stone martens and the weasels. Among the birds of prey, you can find the goshawk, the biancone, the buzzard, the honey buzzard and the golden eagle. Also the green woodpecker, black woodpecker, the common hoopoe and small passerines can all be spotted.
FOLLOW THE RHYTHMS OF
the Flora
In the oasis, the vegetation is beautifully diverse. In the lower areas, broad-leaved woods prevail, characterised by the presence of oaks, black hornbeams, horse chestnuts, cherry trees, field maples, hazelnut trees, aspens and black alders.
At higher altitudes, the arboreal vegetation consists mainly of beech woods and conifer populations, derived from the reforestation of former crops and pastures. Rows of laburnum, cherry trees and rowan fowlers punctuate the edges of the open areas.
THE PRECIOUS ACTIVITIES OF
Oasi Dynamo
Oasi Dynamo deals with the management and conservation of the biodiversity of the WWF affiliated oasis in Limestre, through agriculture, breeding and scientific research. The food produced on site is served to the guests at Oasy Le Felci, straight from grower to consumer.
Oasi Dynamo markets local produce through direct and indirect points of sale. All profits go back into environmental conservation projects, according to a business model with a social purpose, in-line with the Dynamo Foundation philosophy of sustainability.
