Babu Valley

(Redirected from Wied Babu)

Babu Valley (Maltese: Wied Babu) is a small valley near Żurrieq, Malta. The valley is considered to be one of the most lushest in Malta and is a minor tourist attraction due to its vistas of the Blue Grotto.[1] The valley is also known for its climbing and trekking sites.[2][3] Certain parts of the valley were under controversy in 2019 after several reports stating that the entirety of the valley is privately owned surfaced.[4]
