Discover Saharan wildlife, Roman ruins, and unique semi-arid landscapes.
Bou-Hedma National Park serves as a crucial conservation hub in Tunisia's Gafsa Governorate, renowned for its success in reintroducing endangered Saharan large mammals like the scimitar oryx and addax. The park's geography spans arid plains and seasonal wadis, encompassing the Ramsar-listed Sebkhet Noual wetland. Its unique landscape also preserves significant Roman-era archaeological sites, offering a rich context for exploring protected-area identity, conservation achievements, and ancient human history within a North African setting.
