Highlights
  • Wadi El-Rayan - The valley of Wadi El-Rayan spans 1759 km², with 113 km² covered by the prominent Wadi El Rayan lakes. Situated approximately 65 km southwest of Faiyum city and 80 km west of the Nile River, the valley features man-made lakes formed from agricultural drainage, creating the two distinct Wadi El Rayan Lakes. The reserve includes a 50.90 km² upper lake and a 62.00 km² lower lake, connected by waterfalls. The southern side of the lower lake hosts three sulfur springs and extensive mobile sand dunes. The Wadi El Rayan Waterfalls are the largest in Egypt.

To the south and southeast of the springs lies Gabal Manqueer Al Rayan, known for marine fossils and archaeological remains. Near the lower lake, Gabal Madwera is notable for its vast dune formations.

  • Valley of the Whales (Wadi Al-Hitan) - Wādī al-Ḥītān (Arabic: وادي الحيتان, lit. ’Wadi of the Whales’ Egyptian Arabic pronunciation: [ˈwa.diː elˈħit.æːn] ⓘ) is a paleontological site in the Faiyum Governorate of Egypt, located about 150 kilometers (93 miles) southwest of Cairo. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in July 2005, it contains hundreds of fossils of some of the earliest forms of whales, the archaeoceti, an extinct sub-order of whales. The site provides crucial evidence for understanding the evolution of whales from land-based animals to ocean-going mammals.

No other location in the world offers the same number, concentration, and quality of such fossils, along with their accessibility in a protected and scenic landscape. This led to its inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2005.
