פארק רמות מנשה, Biosphere reserve in Plain of Manasseh, Israel
Ramat Menashe Park is a biosphere reserve in the Plain of Manasseh featuring Mediterranean forests, rolling hills, and open meadows. It provides walking trails, cycling paths, and picnic areas distributed across the landscape.
The reserve received UNESCO recognition in 2010, marking a major milestone for environmental protection in Israel. This designation secured protection for the natural landscape and its ecological systems.
The park combines farming practices with nature conservation, where visitors encounter both agricultural areas and restored habitats that show how people and wildlife share the land.
Wear sturdy shoes and bring plenty of water, especially during warmer months when exploring trails. Most pathways are well-marked, though a map or local guide helps with navigation.
Spring brings wild anemones, irises, and rare orchids that blanket the meadows in color. This seasonal bloom draws nature lovers and photographers who want to witness the landscape's transformation.
