Hike in
Marana
after the fire
On April 11, 2020 there was a fire on Mount Marana, in Crespadoro.
Those that live in the area were waiting with anxiety until the fire was completely under control, almost 24 hours later.
It seems to me it was less damaging than the fire there was 30 years ago, that burnt everything.
But it’s sad to see the trees completely burnt, those half burnt and the extermination of snails.
The fire burst in the middle of the coronavirus lockdown, but as soon as we were allowed to go hiking I went to see.
It seemed Autumn for the color orange of trees.
But it was not Autumn.
What makes me sadder is see the azalea that are usually so beautiful, completely dark.
Luckily nature is strong and it’s already recovering.
The grass shows from the ashes, flowers and trees are blooming.
On the top there were a lot of people, and it surprised me, considering it was Thursday.
Probably we all miss a bit of fresh air and nature after the lockdown.

Flowers
And to finish some beautiful wild flowers not from the mountain, but from the countryside of Marana.
