En Afek Nature Reserve

The En Afek Nature Reserve preserves swampland and waterway sources the majority of which have been lost in Israel. Along the swamp pathway in the Reserve, visitors "float" over a swamp surrounded by rich riverbank vegetation and colorful water birds. From the top of the ancient flour mill they can see views of the Akko valley, and in the Garden Shelter they can get an impression of rare plants from the coastal plain.

This is a very nice example of wetlands and lakes which you would expect to find in South Carolina or parts of Africa. You travel up the highway through Haifa and the port and all of a sudden you arrive at this nature reserve. There are nice trails to walk around a large circle and observe the water buffalo and the different types of birds and fish.
