Dana Biosphere Reserve

Jordan

The Dana Biosphere Reserve is the largest in Jordan and includes a variety of terrain, from sandstone cliffs more than 1700m high near Dana to a low point of 50m below sea level in Wadi Araba. Sheltered within the red-rock escarpments are protected valleys that are home to a surprisingly diverse ecosystem. About 600 species of plant (ranging from citrus trees and junipers to desert acacias and date palms) thrive in the reserve, together with 180 species of bird. Best explored on foot, there are a series of trails — some guided, some self-guided — which take in a variety of sights from canyon scenery to local villages and ancient copper mines.
