Golan Trail Trek - From Merom Golan To Keshet (5 Days)

You'll arrive in Kibbutz Merom Golan during the day at your preferred time. Kibbutz can be reached by bus from Kiryat Shemona. Kiryat Shemona offers a bus service from Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

The walk starts directly from the property. It's an epic 22 km long day with a number of fantastic views in all directions. The excitement begins in the morning when you circle the peaks of two sleeping volcanoes halfway up: Mount Bental and Mount Avital. You have great views of Mount Hermon and the Syrian Golan Heights. In the middle of the hike you will cross the main road near Kibbutz Ein-Zivan. It is a good place for a lunch break with a chocolate factory (also a cafe), a nice bakery and a boutique winery. The trail leads east and climbs to the next vantage point on the top of Mount Bney Resesen. After descending from Bney Rsesen Mountain, climb the Bashanite Ridge and back down to Moshav Aloney Habashan for walking distance. If 22 km is too much for you, the day can be shortened to 12 km by starting it in Ein Zovan (Requires an additional taxi transfer to the starting point of the walk.)

A relaxed day compared to the first two days. It is halfway to Hushnia. Here you will find the remains of an 8th-century guest house on the top of a hill and the ruins of a Circassian village at the foot of the hill. The Circassians are an ethnic group from the North Caucasus that was relocated to Syria by the Ottomans around 1800. A good place for a lunch break. Just before you reach Keshet, you will come across a stream and a few springs. A great picnic area to round off the day. The spring is about 2 km away and the property is within walking distance Day tripDistance: approx. 15Walking time: approx. 06:00Ascent: approx. 80step: approx. 150 Cateringbreakfast
