Nahal Ayun, Nature reserve in northern Israel.

The Nahal Ayun features four distinct waterfalls along its 7-kilometer course, with the Tanur Waterfall reaching a height of 31 meters.

The stream's original course underwent modifications following the drainage of the Hula region, leading to new water management systems for irrigation purposes.

The stream carries both Hebrew and Arabic names, with its Arabic designation 'Bareighit' translating to 'river of fleas' in local terminology.

The reserve maintains two entrance points: one near Metula's northeastern corner and another on Route 90, with specific closing times for each access point.

Since 2009, the Israel Nature and Parks Authority diverts water from Dan River boreholes during summer to maintain consistent water flow in the stream.
