Wadi Qana

Wadi Qana is a nature reserve stretching about 18 kilometers through the northern West Bank with steep cliffs, flowing streams, and varied habitats. The valley supports diverse plant and animal life across its different ecosystems.

The valley has been inhabited for thousands of years, as shown by archaeological finds of ancient settlements and agricultural terraces. These remains tell of long human occupation and land management.

Palestinian communities use the valley for farming, drawing on water from the streams to irrigate their fields across generations.

Visiting different sections requires advance preparation due to current conditions in the region and seasonal weather variations. It helps to plan your timing based on the season you choose to visit.

Spring water flow in the valley has decreased notably in recent decades, reflecting the impact of surrounding settlements on water resources. This change significantly affects the environment and local farming.
