Israel Trail #27: To the Yarkon Stream and Beyond!
Sunday, November 10th: Join Hiking the Holyland and expert guide Ben Zaltzman on our 27th segment of the Israel Trail, a fabulous, flat, 15 kilometer walk from the coast along Yarkon Stream and beyond!
The day begins where we left off last time at Tel Baruch in Tel Aviv. After hot coffee and an intro, we’ll begin our trek along the Israel Trail. On this beautiful, flat stretch of trail, we’ll encounter a combination of nature and history, as we follow the famous Yarkon Stream. Along the way, we’ll stop for breaks and explanations. The day will end at HaShirim forest, where we’ll celebrate the completion of the 27th segment of the Israel Trail with wine and snacks!

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.Â
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.
