About the Activity
In the green Judean Lowlands lies a remarkable hill where people lived many years ago!
We invite you and your little ones to a circular, enjoyable, easy hike, full of discoveries and small adventures in the heart of nature.
Along the route, we will descend to explore one or two caves, put on headlamps, and feel like real excavators and trackers.
We will examine the ground up close and search for ancient pottery shards that prove people lived here in the past.
Along the way, we will also discover the richness of the flora and fauna characteristic of this beautiful region and learn about the nature around us through our senses.
The route is easy, safe, and specially suited to little feet and the great curiosity of the whole family!
Come enjoy a morning of discoveries, cave exploration, stories from the past, and blooming nature on a tour that is just right for little ones!
