Jebil is a national park in Tunisia situated within the Sahara desert. Covering an area of 150,000 hectares, it is the country's second-largest national park, after Senghar-Jebbes National Park. Though large, it is relatively new having been designated a national park in 1994 (unofficially since 1984). Until Senghar-Jebbes was declared, Jebil was the only national park within the Sahara desert proper.
