Perched on the makhtesh rim, this visitor centre operated by the Israel Nature and Parks Authority has an extremely helpful information desk providing information about the Makhtesh Ramon Nature Reserve, as well as a museum with four exhibition spaces, the most interesting of which are the hall with a 3D exhibition about the creation of the makhtesh and the audiovisual hall where a movie about desert animals is screened. Bookings are essential if you wish to visit the museum.
The Israel Nature and Parks Authority also offers private guided tours of the nature reserve. Telephone or email the visitor centre for details.
