Ben Zaltzman
My name is Ben Zaltzman, I’m a tour guide and a hiker in Israel who leads people on trails around the country.
I fell in love with nature at a young age.
While exploring the wide open spaces of nature, I came to know that it was the place where I belong.
A question I ask during our journeys is, “What happens to me in nature?”
I found secret hiking trails, discovered magical corners in the country, and have been guiding others through my experiences.
The trips I lead are about nature connection, the power of being in nature, and the changing environment.
I’m an expert at long-distance hikes. I hiked for 6 month along the Pacific Crest Trail in the US, and have gone on lots of other journeys in Israel and abroad.
Education:
Tour guiding course of the ministry of tourism, birdwatching course (Israeli SPN), educational tours (ministry of education), Storytelling, hunter-gatherers life skills, group dynamics leader, tour educator (on Birthright), Nature cure & connection journey.
Hi,
Nothing on friday or shabbat?
What time does the bus leave Savidor station in Tel Aviv? Will it do any good for anyone living in Jerusalem?
I would like an answer to my earlier comment. For a hike starting at 9:15 AM in Tiberias, how early would one have to leave home in Jerusalem to get to the minibus in T.A.? And how early is that minibus scheduled to leave Savidor Station? –Tuvia Lavit
