Welcome to the official website dedicated to the Majjistral Nature and History Park, Malta’s first National Park.

Coastal Cliffs

Clay Slopes

The Majjistral Park is situated in the middle of the Natura 2000 strech of coast, in an area largely dominated by clay, which sits beneath the upper and lower coralline limestone. Read More

Ecology

Spurge

Walks

Walks

One of the most beautiful walks is down along Rdum Majjiesa. This area is covered by clay slopes, water courses and boulder scree, and features a number of rare plants. The more adventurous rambler may attempt to keep going around the clay slopes to Rdum id-Delli, which is no less stunning. Read More

Rural Heritage

Fields

Though agriculture in the park is very limited, owing to the soil conditions that have lead to establishment of garrigue in many areas, there are isolated pockets, mostly located in the Eastern part along Xagħra l-Ħamra, limits of Manikata. Read More

Cultural Heritage

Coastal Tower

The Majjistral Nature and History Park is characterised by rocky coastline and an open garigue landscape, with extremely high exposure to the strong elements of sun, sea and wind that prevail along the coast. Read More

Paragliding

The Park is a great place for mountain bikes, but you must keep to the paths, which lead you to all the vantage points in the Park. Horse riding is also a good option. Water sports are practiced widely throughout the warmer months. Read More
