5 Beautiful Places in Israel That Can Only Be Reached by Car

Israel is a small country, but many large nations can only envy the diversity and picturesque landscapes of this land. In a short time, you can cross the entire Holy Land by car: from the colorful agricultural "squares" in the mountains in the north of the country, through the expanses of Sharon and the Jerusalem hills, to the mesmerizing dunes of the Negev.
Today we tell you about the real gems of Israel – 5 places that can only be reached by car.


1. Hula Reserve

This is one of the most beautiful and attractive nature reserves in the country. It is home to a huge number of migratory birds that you can observe while listening to their songs. You can stroll through the reserve and enjoy the stunning views, and if you wish, you can pitch a tent right on-site to rest and spend the night. Directions


2. Ein Sataf Spring

The Jerusalem and Judean mountains are known for their abundance of springs, and it is difficult to name one as "the best." However, if you have to choose, Ein Sataf is the perfect choice. Tourists from around the world are impressed by its size, depth, and the magical stone caves that surround it. The Sataf spring is often referred to as the "unofficial sea" of Jerusalem. Directions


3. Desert Pool

In the Judean Desert, there is a natural water pool – Nahal Tzfira. It offers truly life-giving freshness. When you dive into it, you will feel that you have arrived at an extraordinary place. The nearby rock takes your breath away. When you arrive at the village of Knockim, take a hiking trail that leads to the Zeelim River. After some time, you will reach its bed. Ahead of you lies the Tzfira pool. Directions


4. Timna Park Spring

On the way to Eilat (on Route 90), you will come across the largest and most beautiful water reservoir in Israel. This deep and impressive turquoise pool can be seen from the road. To reach it, turn right from the abandoned industrial area of Timna. After descending a steep sandy slope, you will reach the site in a few minutes. Finally, you can swim in clean and cool water.
