Gamla Nature Reserve

Reviewed By Cliffdweller

This ridge top walk is one of most spectacular hikes in the world for history buffs, birders, and anyone who enjoys dramatic scenery. It's an easy walk along a ridgetop to the fascinating ruins of the ancient Jewish village with spectacular views of the Kinneret/Sea of Galilee and good birding the whole way.

Hermon Stream Nature Reserve

The largest waterfall in Israel is in the Nahal Hermon Nature Reserve (Banyas). Above the year-round flow of water there is a "hanging trail", where unique remains of human legacy can be found.

Reviewed By F5102ELbarbarar - Erie, United States

Just north of the Golan Heights this nature reserve has the largest waterfall in Israe There are four trails which take from 45- 90 minutes to walk. They are each color coded-yelliw, purple, blue or red. After the conquest of Alexander the Great in 332BCE, Greek culture was brought to the East. Here next to the flowing spring and the rich vegetation, the Panaeon was constructed, a temple to the god Pan, who lived in nature. The Crusaders saw Banias as a natural border between their kingdom in Palestine and the neighboring Muslim realm whose center was Damascus. Beautiful place, wish we could have stayed longer, so much to see, very beautiful.

Walking along the stream, that eventually joins the Jordan river, is a wonderful experience for the entire family. Amazing archaeological excavations. Enjoy.

Tal Saki

Reviewed By MikeM262

The Slingshot experience at Tel Saki with Yaakov was AMAZING! I have already recommended it to 5 groups that will be in Israel in 2020. The story of the battle was moving and inspirational, the activity was top notch, and Yaakov is an amazing speaker and Zionist.
