The diminutive wildflowers of summer poked through our carpet of pine needles. Out came the coffee. Our border collie started up a game of pine cone fetch.
Length Range: 3-5 km
Sweet and Simple in Nes Harim – Beit Itab
In those early morning hours, the sun made the wild wheat and dry flower stalks look more like woven gold. Under the shadow of trees, we began to notice how pretty the summer landscape really was when it was out of the harsh midday light.
Nahal Jilaboun Waterfall Hike
Fallen trees turned into fun log bridges, useful for crossing water that we were actually happy to splash through. Pink petals fluttered down from the tall bushes up above.
Hike to Banias Springs
On this hike, we found cool, quiet solitude in one of the most incredible natural settings in Israel.
Nahal Og – Climbing Canyon Walls
The texture of the rock walls is striking – smooth and soft in some places, brown and bumpy in others. I hear the bird calls so crisp, echoing around in the silence.
