Camping in Tenero, 1956
Since the 1950s, ‘Canadian-style’ tents have started to appear in the campsites of Mappo. What was once an unwelcoming place of hard toil has become a recreational area, attracting both tourists and locals.
Hunter with shotgun, A. Branca
In the past a flat-hulled boat was used to get into the marshland to hunt for ducks: the hunter would lie flat on the bottom and when the dog made the ducks fly up into the air, he would shoot them using a type of punt gun known as a ‘spingarda’. The dog then fetched the animals hit.
