The Wetland of Agathopouli completes the
wetlands of Aliakmonas Delta. Formed by the silt deposited by the
Aliakmonas River and easily accessible,
this is one of the most interesting sections of the wetlands. The
marshland is home to all the birdlife that can be observed in the
Delta.
Here herons and other wading birds search for food in the water
deposited by the river. Thousands of water birds, such as ducks,
swans and geese,
congregate here in the winter, and the muddy waters provide them
with a fertile nesting ground.
There is a observation tower serving the wetlands of the
Aliakmonas Delta and Alikes-Kitros at Nea Agathopouli.
This serves as a centre for the work of conservation and
protection, as well as making the area of the Axios Delta, Loudia,
Aliakmonas, Galikos and Alikes Kitros known to the public.
The main objective of the observation tower is to keep people
informed of the sensitive nature of the area and its inestimable
ecological value.
The objective of the observation tower is to help organise and
control visitors to the marshland of Agathopouli and the
surrounding regions of the Delta as far as Alikes Kitros.
Observation
