Eilat Bird Watching Park – פארק הצפרות אילת
Birding Park Eilat – An activity center for birdwatchers, with an office that organizes tours of the beautiful park during the migration seasons. Besides the birds, don’t miss visiting the ringing station and the KKL-JNF tree-planting area.
The Bird Watching Park is the main resting point of over than a billion birds migrating between Asia, Europe and Africa and it is one of the most important habitats in the world. This is a unique natural phenomenon which provides an opportunity to watch the birds from a special hiding place. This place is a recovery spot for the birds providing a last chance for the migrating birds to find food before their long way across the desert. At the park itself a small pool was created for the water birds, maintained by fresh brackish water. In the small wooden hut in the park is a ringing station for the monitoring and the collection of data about these migrating birds, as well as for taking care of the birds that suffer from exhaustion.
