  • 5/5 Guram Z. 1 year ago on Google • 224 reviews
    An excellent place for a family holiday and a picnic. A lot of greenery, a very large area, there is room to roam. There are lakes and a river with backwaters where children splash around with pleasure. Clean, well maintained, equipped. Yes, there is a scary traffic jam at the entrance, but don’t worry, the large parking lot and the huge size of the park will accommodate everyone, there will be no discomfort. I recommend to all. You can easily spend the whole day and not even notice.

    This park is outstanding. There are remains from Herodian, Crusader, Ottoman and British periods. The site also contains a wonderful nature preserve, with wildlife, plants and water (source of the Yarkon). There are picnic areas and ponds where children play.

  • 4/5 zvi y. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's a shame there are no lawns (at least where we were) and a shame about the time we spent in the car at the entrance on Saturday 10:00 14 minutes from the road to the park! (Original) חבל שאין מדשאות (לפחות איפה שאנחנו היינו) וחבל על הזמן אותו בילינו במכונית בכניסה שבת 10:00 14 דקות מהכביש עד לפארק!

  • 5/5 Константин �. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great place to spend time with the whole family. Was in Shabbat. At the entrance, I was stunned by the number of cars, there was a traffic jam. He imagined that a booth would be waiting for me inside. As it turned out the opposite. Enough space for everyone. Going inside, you find yourself in an oasis. Green grass, trees, fresh water, with live fish. So I want to dive. But everywhere there are signs, do not enter the water, do not feed or catch fish. There are places for kebab lovers. Also on the territory you can see the ancient ruins. In general, a sea of ​​impressions is provided. Entrance is 28 shekels per person. (Original) Отличное место для времяпровождения всей семьей. Был в Шаббат. На подъезде, меня ошарашило количество машин, была пробка. Представлял, что внутри меня будет ждать балаган. Как оказалось все наоборот. Место хватило для всех. Заезжая внутрь, попадаешь будто в оазис. Зеленая трава, деревья, пресная вода, с живой рыбой. Так и хочется нырнуть. Но везде знаки, в воду не заходить, рыбу не кормить и не ловить. Есть места для любителей шашлыков. Также на территории можно увидеть древние развалины. Вообщем море впечатлений обеспечено. Вход 28 шекелей за человека.

    (Translated by Google) As one who loves to travel, I recommend purchasing a cache card that gives you access to many coves in the country, In Afek Park there is an old accumulator which is very nice to walk around and walk on its walls which previously preserved the Sharon area. There is a small stream for dipping and children's games here, plus nice BBQ areas. Anyone who does not know the movie Spychas filmed here in the fort :) It is recommended to arrive in the morning to prepare a place and take a walk in the direction of the Pipers' Pool, To sum up on a warm sunny day, take the kids and go for a walk (Original) כאחד שאוהב לטייל אני ממליץ מראש לרכוש את כרטיס מטמון שנותן לך גישה להרבה פינות חמד בארץ, בפארק אפק ישנו מצבר ישן שנחמד מאוד לטייל בו וללכת על חומותיו אשר בעבר שמרו על אזור השרון. יש כאן נחל קטן לטבילת רגליים ומשחקי ילדים ובנוסף פינות מנגל נחמדות. מי שלא יודע את הסרט ספיחס צילמו כאן במבצר :) ממולץ להגיע בבוקר להכין מקום וצאת לטיול רגלי לכיוון בריכת הנופרים, לסיכום ביום שמש חמימה קחו את הילדים וצאו לטייל

The area also has excevations from the Roman and other BC periods

    Beautiful place for the rest. There are many places for making barbeque, places for playing for kids. There is a lake with many fishes (but fishing is prohibited), beavers and birds. And, of course, there are three ruins of medieval castle.

  • 5/5 Beverly M C. 7 months ago on Google
    It was such an Amazing Historical Place to Visit. Entrance Fee was a Fair Price and I was given a Map upon entry. The weather was perfect for walking around and taking pictures. To be able to Touch, Walk, See and Imagine the LIVES that were once here. Remnants of a Forgotten Time in History. I could've walked around all day. And, the View from the Castle...is SPLENDID! This Historical Place has plenty of Parking; Public Restrooms; Picnic Tables and Shaded Areas. It is Wheelchair Accessible and Family Friendly. There's even a small wading pool for the little kiddos. The City Bus Stops Outside the Entrance. This Place is a MUST See!

    A national park and great picnic area along a little stream also known as Tel Afek. Antipatris was build by Herod and named after his father. The fortress is build by the Ottomans and remains can be found from the cardo during the Roman period and a governors house from pharaoh Ramses II It is said that Paul stayed here for one night when he was brought from Jerusalem to Caesarea Maritima for his trial.
