It’s nice to know that there are really formidable hikes in Israel. Hikes that take you to otherworldly places, the stuff of fairy tales.
Special Feature: Desert
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.
Enot Tsukim and the Hidden Reserve
Enot Tsukim is a site that’s loved by many. The best way to explore it is to seek out the parts of the park that remain pristine and untouched in their desert spring beauty.
Nahal Arugot and the Fairy Pools
Nahal Arugot, the Hidden Waterfall, and the Fairy Pool up above were like secrets of the desert, just waiting to be discovered by anyone willing to dig a little deeper.
Ramon Crater – Mount Ardon
Before long, we were at the foot of a massive climb – pale rocks like uncut gemstones, glistening in the early morning sun.
