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.

There were nooks and crannies, birds and bats, and even a window looking out onto tall hollyhocks growing against the side of the mountain.
Nahal Halilim
This trail is perfectly rugged, and full of sweet-smelling wildflowers in the springtime. The best part? There are two caves on the path.
