Fiume Morto is an ancient watercourse which continues to play an
essential role both as far as its environmental and landscape functions
are concerned and for the hydraulic function in the northern plain of
Pisa. This watercourse characterizes in particular the Estate of San
Rossore, marking the border between the Municipalities of Pisa and San
Giuliano Terme. Its naturalistic value is expressed by some peculiar
floristic and wildlife species that have found here their ideal
habitat. In its final stretch, Fiume Morto Vecchio enters the coastal
dunes system, which is one of the richest areas in biodiversity of the
Estate and the whole Migliarino, San
Rossore, Massaciuccoli Park.
