Wardija Ridge is a very scenic plateau, one of a group in the north of Malta. The ridge is sparsely populated making it an ideal walking location. There is lots of flora and fauna and Wardija Ridge has recently been protected. Wardija ridge, Il-Ballut tal-Wardija and Il-Wied ta' San Martin run in a Southwestern - Northeastern direction from the Għajn Tuffieħa area in Mġarr to the Xemxija Bay area in St. Paul's Bay. The Northern ridge edge is interrupted by a series of valley systems which discharge into il-Wied tal-Pwales. The landscape plateaus, that have been assigned a Level 2 degree of protection as Areas of Ecological Importance and Sites of Scientific Importance, support important garigue communities characterised by rare species. Other levels of protection have been given to the three valley systems in the scheduled areas, the upper reaches of the watercourse of Il-Wied ta' San Martin and the Southern part of the promontory at the area known as L-Argentier. In 1915, the British built Wardija Battery on the east end of the ridge. The battery became obsolete in 1938, but its gun emplacements still exist. ==Locations on Wardija Ridge== *Busewdien *L-Argentier 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wardija Ridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
