HulaHula Nature Reserve
 

The Hula Nature Reserve is located in the southern Hula Valley, near Yesud Hama'ala. The reserve was founded after the Hula Lake and swamps were drained in the early days of the state of Israel, in order to preserve part of the waterscape, along with the special fauna and flora that had been there before the drainage project.
Visitors to the reserve can see tens of thousands of fowl, including cranes, storks and pelicans (depending on the season), which live in the Hula Reserve and enjoy the lake, the marshes and the abundance of food that the Hula Valley offers. The marvelous Oforiya visitors' center in the reserve includes a model of the Hula Valley, a short film about the formation of the Hula Valley and the draining of the lake and the swamps and a spectacular 3D multimedia presentation that lets the audience join a flock of birds in flight.
