Northern Negev Area

See the table below or click the markers on the map for full hike info:

The Northern Negev sits between the Beersheva Area and the Southern Negev. It is a vast desert full of challenging treks, dry riverbeds, and three spectacular craters. In the wintertime, pools of water form after flash floods, which become popular swimming spots for desert hikers.
