Kayak on the Jordan River

  • Kayaking on the Jordan River....lush green landscape, beautiful water, perfect for the beginner. The booming sound you hear will not be thunder, it is actually artillery fire being shot off toward Syria. It is not talked about, but artillery is shot off daily toward Syria. Such an odd combination, the peaceful scenery, easy water to canoe and yet the constant sound of unrest. You are safe, however, taking this sports activity, and it is highly recommended!

    Kayaks and safety equipment are provided at the site. Bring bottled water and a camera in a waterproof bag.

    by ophiro
    The Israel bike trail , or in Hebrew "Hot'ze Israel" is something like 900km from The Hermon Mt to Eilat.

    Near Petah Tikva , the place i live , there is part of the trail that leads to Rosh Ha'ayin , Hod hasharon and another trail that leads to Tel aviv and the beach (and you pass Ramat gan and Ha'yarkon park and river).



    You need good bicycle , helmet to protect your head , gloves for your hands , water and rescue kit.

    You can enjoy the lovely beach in Caesarea everyday from 9:00-18:00 with a lifeguard.

    To enter the beach you should pay 25 NIS for an adult or 10 NIS if you already paid for entering the park.

    After 18:00 it is free but no Lifeguard.

    The Sea is very convenient most of the time and sailing is a great option.
    Very relaxing , a man and a boat alone in the open water.

    I took this picture from Mandarin beach on sunset - i think this man on the boat is having fun.

    The fashion of bicycle ride is getting a huge acceleration here in Israel.

    you will see a lot of peope riding their bicycles - kids and adults , men and women.

    There are a lot of places to ride , even near the major cities - the Yarkon near Tel aviv , Bet Oren near haifa and many more.


    You need good bicycle , helmet to protect your head , gloves for your hands , water and rescue kit.
