Well bound to happen sooner or later thanks to people being irresponsible and leaving the place in such a state. All over the pet and nature lovers groups, that the municipality has apparently now close Al Qudra lakes to the public and people are no longer allowed there.

Can't say I blame them to be honest,

really? Then you can visit Moon lake, it's a new attraction in Dubai, maybe a bit too hot now in April, but if you want to see how it look before going check my video about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO83dnF4RBg

Someone posted this on FB too. Below is the last post on the thread. Seems its not the lakes close to the cycle track that's closed. Clarification from the OP: " To all of you getting the location confused I was not referring to the lakes near the cycle centre. There is a more established location nearer to bab al Shams this is what is now closed. The lakes with no wildlife near the cycle center is still open as far as I am aware. There are gates to that one - a well established habitat now prime for bird migration with no access."

Oh, that is sad. We had such a lovely time there. I agree people need to be more responsible when it comes to leaving "footprints" behind.

With people treating it as a rubbish dump, I am not surprised. I stopped going, as it was sad to see the rubbish, the mentality of these people are unbelievable. The authorities need to be stricter on littering and enforce fines like Singapore does.

That is too bad. I agree it was bound to happen with all the trash that that was being left behind and people driving over the irrigation system.
