Descrizione
The Ein Gedi natural park has a rich flora and fauna, rocks and waterfalls. It is a real oasis in the dry desert. Two rivers (wadis) run through the green valleys that provide a stark contrast to the arid desert landscape in the area. Desert wildlife of Ein Gedi includes Nubian ibex, red fox, jackal, rock hyrax, dorcas gazelles, fat-tailed scorpion (aggressive and very toxic, but thankfully nocturnal). The rift valley running through Israel is a migration pinch point where 50,000 Cicogna bianca, 400,000 Falco pecchiaiolo, 140,000 Aquila anatraia minore pass through in spring and autumn, along with shrikes, terns, flamingoes, egrets, Falco cuculo, Falco pescatore, Pavoncella armata, Chiurlo piccolo and many more. Plant life includes tamarisk, baobab and several cactus species.
In the irrigated kibbutz area, bee-eaters, grackles, Upupa, Garrulo arabo and Bulbul golanera may be seen.
The path up to the waterfall is precarious and requires agility. Always take plenty of water and avoid midday heat. The circular route marked on the map is about 10 km, with 700 feet of ascent.
