Boukornine National Park, National park in Ben Arous and Nabeul Governorates, Tunisia.
Boukornine National Park covers 1,939 hectares of land with forests, mountain areas, and natural springs near Hammam-Lif. The terrain includes diverse landscapes with parking and seating facilities throughout the grounds.
Tunisia established the park in 1987 as a protected area for native wildlife and plants. This decision came from the need to safeguard the region's natural resources.
The ecomuseum displays how local people have lived alongside this land, showing traditional practices tied to the natural environment. Visitors learn about customs and knowledge passed down through generations that shaped the relationship with this place.
The park sits roughly 15 kilometers south of Tunis and welcomes visitors throughout the year. Parking and seating areas are available for guest comfort.
The park holds the only North African population of Persian cyclamen flowers. It is also home to the Etruscan shrew, which is Earth's tiniest mammal.
