that include some of the country's most beautiful landscapes. The Mujib Natural Reserve
surrounds Wadi Mujib, a deep, majestic canyon. The Nubian Ibex, now protected after many
years of near extinction, is bred here for reintroduction to the wild.Wadi Dana, a world
of natural treasures. Visitors can experience the intriguing archeological ruins of Finan,
camping, the tranquility of Dana Village, or the natural beauty of the surrounding
sandstone cliffs here.
Located in the highlands of Ajlun, Zubya is a protected nature reserve that shelters the
Roe Deer. The Mediterranean hill climate and woodlands of oak and pistachio are a contrast
to other climate zones that Jordan offers.

species in the Middle East. Passing through this reserve, one is likely to see Arabian
Oryx, ostriches, gazelles, and onagers.
