Easy trail for families even with little kids. Nice and wet cove to go through and a forbidden pool that everybody swimming there...

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.

A really comfortable walk that allowed us to see Jerusalem from a different light, thank God we saw great views and tasted amazing herbs. Recommend highly if you're looking for a place to enjoy the plant life of Israel.

A palestinian village, their original people where expelled in 1948, they planeted grapes, olive trees, cactus, among a lot of other things. Its know of its rocky walls, its water canal and the roman way of water reaching plants. Its water canal has water even in summer. Its a great village and holds amounts of history. I really say its must visit place but read the real history of this place not what they want you to believe.

Easy to rich from Jerusalem or Mevasseret this is a very lovely place to visit, refreshing during hot days, especially beautiful at spring with all the almond trees blossoming. Has various hiking trails and water springs and is set in one of Israel’s most incredible and powerful landscapes. Entrance is free and open during daylight hours. There is a great coffee shop at the site. Two parking lots: the upper one and the lower one. Tip: As the hiking trail towards the water might be a bit too steep for children, you can park two cars at two different parking lots and go only downhill.

A pleasant trip for a summer day, a cool pool to dip in, you can drive the car to the lower parking lot, then there is only a short walk.

The water is amazing! There is also an underground tunnel that brings the water from the source of the spring into a small pool. A great place for families. There is another spring not far from the סטף called Ein Bikura. If you come early in the morning there are not a lot of people here.

Beautiful place for a picnic, and the caves are a great attraction for kids. There is a parking lot very close, so not a lot of walking is needed. There are restrooms at the top parking lot but not around the springs area.

Beautiful at the end of winder in february-march when the almonds tree are blooming. The road leading there is also fantastic.

Great nature reserve right outside of Jerusalem with a great spring that you can dunk in. Lots and lots of stairs if you start from the bottom. You can park on top and have less of a ‘hike’. Highly recommended for families.

Great spots for picnics, nice walking trails. There’s a water source on the lower trail. The area is pretty clean, and there’s an easy and accessible parking lots. Worth a visit💯

Recently, I visited a beautiful natural area that offers amazing mountain views, green surroundings, and a peaceful atmosphere. The first thing you notice are the impressive mountains that provide a quiet escape from busy daily life. The area is filled with trees, giving you plenty of shade to relax in while enjoying the calm environment. What makes this place special is its traditional farming on terraces, which adds a unique, local feel. The terraced fields are not just useful for farming but also add beauty to the landscape. There's also a water hole for anyone who wants to cool off with a quick dip. However, it's worth noting that the water isn't very clean, so it's best for a short splash rather than a long swim. The only downside to this otherwise lovely spot is the water's cleanliness, which could be improved. Overall, this hidden place is perfect for anyone looking for a peaceful setting, stunning natural beauty, and a unique, local experience. I highly recommend it for people who love nature.

Sataf forest was very beautiful so this is a journey that I loved Because there are places that you cannot imagine how amazing they are, so I advise you to visit them. ❤️

Beautiful place. But much better in winter. Nice view and hiking trails.

Nice Jerusalem area hike

Great place. Always fun to take the children.

So amazing! The bigger pond I would not recommend to people who aren't confident in there swimming and careful jumping in! So beautiful for hiking picnics and some water experiences
