We found a gorgeous, easy walk through nature with an awesome olive grove, a spring, ancient ruins, and a weirdly cool palm tree forest.
Difficulty Level: Moderate
Nahal Tekoa and the Haritoun Cave
At the Haritoun Cave Trail in Nahal Tekoa, we escaped from the noise of everyday life and discovered a cross between a playground and a monastery. Between the uniquely beautiful scenery and fun rock formations, this little trail is well worth exploring.
The Hadassah Trail
This long walk through the outskirts of Jerusalem is a perfect return to the peace and quiet of nature.
Mount Tsfira- Judean Desert
Atop a desert mountain, there is total silence. You can see far into the distance, and you see nothing – no people, animals, or trees.
Mount Heret Loop Trail
Pine forests, olive groves, sights and sounds of serenity in nature, all just minutes from Jerusalem – this is one natural landscape you can’t take for granted.
