Last week I took a family to Ein Gedi park. I was there long enough to be reminded of why I love it so much. The park is a desert oasis which is fed by the ein gedi springs. The springs get their water from rain that falls over the mountainous regions of the country and then seeps into the aquifer . The park has a number of different trails and has a large variety of sites. The different paths lead to waterfalls, pools of water (some of which people are welcome to swim in) and various archeological sites.

In addition to the nice cool and clean spring water- there is an impressive variety of animal and plant life. The heat and abundance of water result in tropical plants growing alongside dessert plants. The animals most likely to be seen include the Rock Hyrax, Ibex and a bird called Tristrams Starling. Nocturnal animals include foxes hyenas and from time to time leopards.

The park is a great place for children (and adults) who enjoy nature, playing in water and seeing wild animals!
