The Southern Negev is a desert region that spreads over the southern part of Israel. Included in this part of the country are the Eilat mountains, one of the most beautiful and geologically varied areas of the desert. High temperatures and very little rainfall are characteristic of the area, making it an ideal choice for winter hiking. |
