Salinelle dello Stadio

The Salinelle dello Stadio, also called “Salinelle dei Cappuccini” are located in the northwestern suburbs of the city of Paternò.
The geological-naturalistic area is characterized by a clayey soil that does not allow the development of vegetation. They are the most active as they present numerous phenomena of emission of water and mud with a high saline content.
