Beschrijving

Angels Canyon is a riverbed that is largely dry and surrounded by rock formations. The southern part of the canyon borders flowing water and scrubland, but the vast majority is dry. Throughout the entire area, rock formations are present that were created by erosion. These rock formations are the breeding habitat of: Grote Rotsklever, Blauwe Rotslijster, Finsch' Tapuit, Rotsklever and Rotsmus.

The walk through the canyon leads you through various biotopes consisting of flowing water, scrub, and rock formations with low vegetation. The canyon is home to a number of species rare in this country, which can be observed with some luck. These are Vale woestijnvink and Woestijnvink. Also Monniksgier, Aasgier, Steenuil, Roze Spreeuw, Ménétriés' Zwartkop, Grote Vale Spotvogel and Hop are present to a greater or lesser extent in this area.

Toegang

Angels Canyon can be reached by driving from Vedi to Dashtakar. Immediately upon arrival in the village, you must turn onto a dirt road that runs along a dry riverbed. Depending on the type of car, it is a matter of driving on until the terrain becomes rocky. In that case, the car can be parked along the dirt road. If you have a car with sufficient ground clearance and four-wheel drive, you can drive a few kilometers further.

A large part of the canyon is accessible only on foot, requiring a short climb of 2-3 meters to proceed.
