Created in 1982, the Timna Park features desert landscapes of all beauty, with numerous geological formations. These are the oldest known copper mines in the world. Exploited from the fourth millennium BC, it is mainly the Egyptians who, from the th to the th century BC, created here a true copper industry. Among the most curious geological formations are an arch, a mushroom shaped rock, and the "pillars of Solomon", feet high. At the foot of these are the ruins of an Egyptian temple, erected in the th century before our era in honour of the goddess Hathor, protector of minors. Take a look at the hieroglyphs engraved in the rock. The park also houses an artificial lake, fed by the water table, where it is possible to make a pedal boat. Mountain biking and rappel are also part of the proposed activities. Camping near the lake, usually reserved by the groups.
