Descrizione
The Tamins oak forest can be explored along a nature trail. Within a relatively small area (approx. 350 ha), it combines various habitats: beech forest in the Ratenna wetlands (1), dry pine forest (2), and nutrient-poor dry meadows (3) on the sun-exposed Benisboden, as well as an oak forest designed as a wood pasture (4). The microstructures and sunny location make the area ideal for insects, lizards, and snakes, but also birds: more than 120 species have already been recorded.
Before arriving at the forest itself, it is worthwhile to search the meadows, bushes, and fruit trees for the Codirosso and listen for the call of the Zigolo nero. Along the lower path through the beech forest, one follows a lively stream most of the time. Amid the songs of typical forest birds such as Pettirosso, Merlo, Tordela, and Tordo bottaccio, the Luì bianco can regularly be heard – and, somewhat less often, the Luì verde. The shrub-covered dry meadows, rich in insects thanks to ecological grazing, are a perfect habitat for Averla piccola, Prispolone, and Zigolo nero. The Stiaccino and Saltimpalo are also frequently observed. The forest, finally, is home to various woodpecker species: while the call of the Picchio nero more often resounds from the higher Pflida reserve, the Picchio rosso minore and Torcicollo inhabit the old oaks.
Up until spring, sightings of the Venturone alpino are possible, as it visits this area when it gets too cold higher up. The last observation of the Zigolo muciatto dates back some time. The Rampichino comune, common in Switzerland but rare in the canton of Grisons, can be observed here regularly. Looking upward is sometimes rewarded with sightings of the Sparviere, Astore, or even Aquila reale. At night, the call of the Allocco can be heard.

NoInformazioni aggiuntive
The oak forest did not arise naturally but is a cultural monument: up until the 19th century, oak forests near settlements were planted mainly to fatten pigs. A trail with 19 signs provides information about the area. The cows in the reserve keep the grassland open and thus preserve the diversity of habitats. Please pay attention to the information signs: mother cows should be given a wide berth.
During migration periods, it is worth looking at the nearby dam lake at the Rhine before or after a walk through the oak forest, as it occasionally serves as a resting place for interesting waterbirds.
