Acacia Trail
Walk under the shade of giant acacia trees, an indigenous species whose branches provide shade for flowering grasses that dance with the desert breezes. Admire rare plants such as Pulicaria Incisa, an aromatic herb that bears flowers. Observe wild animals that roam from time to time in the middle of the picturesque nature of the land, including Red-Necked Ostriches, Idmi Gazelles, and the marmot-like Rock Hyrax.
