There has never been a shortage of hiking trails in Israel. Hiking in the north is a favorite activity for many during the weekends and holidays. Since we organize trips on the Israel Trail, we highly recommend choosing one of the routes included in your weekend plans. If you want to embark on a more challenging trip from the north to the south, you are welcome Check when our next trip is coming out (we do 2 trips a year) and sign up.We make sure to celebrate both Passover in the desert in the spring and Hanukkah in the desert in the winter.
How to choose a walking route
It is important to go out in good weather. For example, giving up a trip in too hot weather. This way you will not suffer from it but also endanger your health. At the same time, not in any situation of hot weather to give up. In the spring and summer days without the bush, it is recommended to hike to areas that include streams. For example, a route that includes an exit from Kibbutz Dan in the north. This is actually the starting point of the Israel Trail.
If you do not like to go on a trip just to hike, and you need a reason to go hiking in the north – here are some reasons:
Hiking in the north
Flowering trips – especially recommended in the spring. This season nature is at its peak. You should embark on a journey following cyclamen, anemones and other flowers. For example: the lower part of Nahal Amud, Tel Anfa Reserve, Mount Gilboa and more.
Water Sources – As mentioned, trips around water sources will make your journey easier. For example, a trip in the Nahal Poleg Reserve includes crossing in front of a lake and it ends in the Mediterranean Sea. There is no better way to freshen up after a few hours hike than on a picnic on the beach. Also, the Israel Trail passes through this place. At the same time, you should choose the part of the path that passes by the Sea of Galilee.
Birding Tours – In Israel there are quite a few places that are defined as birding sites. The most famous of which is the Hula Reed. If you come at the right time in the season, you can see quite a few types of birds. Gamla Reserve will also allow you to see the eagles there.
