Beautiful countryside, rolling forested hills. The park area includes hiking trails, scenic lookouts, 4x4 tracks, picnic areas, a monastery, an archeological find, a playground and outdoor fitness installation - the works. And just ten minutes' drive from Jerusalem.
I love this place. There are several seating areas, some require a hike and others right by the parking.
There's a superb trail for running/walking around mt. Eitan, 7.8km long. Not easy with 200m of accumulated climb.
Great hiking trail In the hills of Jerusalem. Very historic. Beautiful views. With springs and a agriculture place which brought people to live here.
Fig and olive trees along the hiking route.
Cheese farm but that requires more walking.
Parking and entrance is free.
You can pick up a map guide in the booth by the parking lot.
There Is an option to walk or drive the along the trail.
Very beautiful spring and pool. There is vegetable garden nearby.
