    ื”ื—ืœืฃ ืœืขื‘ืจื™ืช Fish ponds that have become a beautiful bird park, with hidden observation and photography spots, and paths arranged for a walk among the pools. Arriving by car requires driving on a dirt track so you have to travel slowly and carefully or alternatively in a 4*4 vehicle.A pastoral and quiet place, recommended to arrive in the early morning or towards the sunset to enjoy increased bird movement. Highly recommended for birds and macro photographers

    A very nice lake with sea turtles and sometimes with many birds. There are good view points and there is a paved walkway around the lake. Highly recommend for a nice walk.

    Nice little nature reserve, great for bird watching especially during migration seasons. The paths are good for walking or jogging and there are a few hiding huts scattered around dedicated for bird watching.

  • 5/5 Danny D. 6 years ago on Google
    Beautiful place for a nice stroll with the kids. Lots of water, lots of greenery, nice paved paths, benches, and lookout huts. Not a lot of shade, as there are no trees. The drive to the lake is a bit challenging, as the dirt road has a very uneven surface.

  • 5/5 Ran E. 7 years ago on Google
    The place is amazing, lots of water, lots of viewing places. The access to the place is not easy, the roads are a little rough and narrow. I think that it is better to come here when the birds migrate, otherwise there is not much to see besides the water and some fish if you are lucky - but it's free and a nice place for a calm walk.

    Great place to see birds and walk around. A bit difficult to reach by private car. Recommended time: October, April

  • 5/5 Yaki T. 8 months ago on Google
    Beautiful water site, walking trails and place for picnic, fields views and rich vegetation. In the summer you can find mature raspberry, soft water turtles and many birds all year. Iris semi natural as the water brought here are recycled from near by and some underground water, not for swimming.

Bird watching area
๐Ÿ‘ Great location to watch the birds. Though it takes 3 km walk from the nearby bus stop. Better if you have a vehicle. Beautiful birds.. I went yesterday, there are still many birds.

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Just getting there on the dirt road was an adventure. A nice walk around the lake. Several shaded stops. No entry fee. You can also rent bikes. (I wish you could add videos to these reviews.)
