We collapsed into our seats, every muscle feeling it. It had been an incredible, an almost impossible, a totally uniquely beautiful day.
Duration: Full Day
Hod Akev – Unreal Desert Hike
The sky was the crispest shade of cerulean, with cirrus clouds spattered around like white paint on a blue canvas. The mountain rock was stark and chalky in some places, like cut clay. In others, piles of sandy stones gathered to form sharp peaks.
Nahal Hemar to Nahal Zohar Desert Trek
Down below, we could see alabaster walls of smooth stone in all kinds of beautiful formations.
From Arad to Nahal Abuv
Smooth white rock filled the bottom of the canyon, so soft that it reminded me of foam on top of the ocean.
Nahal Yitla – The Long Way Around
This time, we can honestly say that we’ve seen all of Nahal Yitla: from playful pathways, to barren hills, to the mysterious valley.
