Wied il-Qlejgħa: a valley with a chain of 19th-century dams built to hold rainwater, popular with Maltese families after heavy rain. A trail of more than two kilometres with information panels gives an easy walk along the valley floor.
Good to know. Stay on the marked paths, because the surrounding fields are private. The approach roads have no pavements, so mind the traffic.
