We found Nahal Bokek, where we tramped through a river, waded in a waterfall pool, and discovered a great family trail that we never knew existed.
Special Feature: Water
Holot Zikim – River to Beach Hike
The waves whooshed in and out with a loud sucking sound, then an intense silence at the moment before they crashed down again.
Dodim Cave and Ein Gedi Spring
The trail led down, and then up, through a labyrinth of alabaster stone.
Dor HaBonim Beach Trail
It was a music that I remembered from my childhood, when nature, night, and summertime all went together.
Nahal David at the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve
Past the rocks, Nahal David streamed past in a gentle trickle at our feet. And still further, large rocks were strewn haphazardly, forming a little den of cool water in the shade.
