About the Activity
Come disconnect from the rat race and immerse yourself in the pastoral nature of Hurvat Hanut and Ein Mata!
Our hike will begin at Hurvat Mata, where we will discover a rich heritage: an ancient winepress and the remains of a special church that served the area in ancient times.
From there, we will continue on a magical walk among old forest trees and a picturesque orchard that invites us to experience the tranquility of nature.
Along the way, we will visit cool springs and enjoy the sight and feel of clear water.
We will be especially excited to visit Ein Tanur, a small spring where we can paddle our feet before heading together into the mysterious tunnel awaiting us.
