שמורת קנה וסמר, Nature reserve in eastern Negev, Israel

The Kanah and Samar Nature Reserve extends across 1,800 dunams of protected land, featuring wetlands, reeds, and a small lake supporting diverse wildlife populations.

The Israeli government established this nature reserve in June 1988 to safeguard the ecological systems and preserve the native plant species of the region.

The reserve functions as an educational center where researchers conduct studies on local flora and fauna while offering guided tours to visiting groups.

Walking trails throughout the reserve provide access to observation points, with clear signage and facilities suitable for visitors with mobility requirements.

The reserve contains specialized wetland habitats where water birds gather among the dense reed beds, creating essential nesting sites in the desert environment.
