TRIP OVERVIEW

Join Finjan for a day hiking in the Carmel through the Yagur River Gorge, followed by hiking with some swimming around the coves of Bonim-Dor, one of Israel’s most pristine stretches of coastline
Summer is almost here, a perfect time of year in Israel for a combination of hiking and swimming. That’s why we’ve decided to do a hike in the morning with some relaxation in the afternoon by the sea at one of Israel’s most uniquely pristine beaches.
The Carmel mountain range is the only one in Israel that reaches the sea and the area offers one of the best hikes during the summer months. The Yagur River Gorge is a steep stream with many dry waterfalls to climb and scramble in a shaded forest area that offers a great escape from the summer heat while still being able to check out a unique part of the country.
On the second part of this day we will explore the lagoons of Bonim-Dor: one of Israel’s most precious stretches of coastline and home to the ancient Phoenician port city of Dor – dating back more than 5000 years! The area is filled with caverns and coves and offers a special look at the calcareous sandstone ridges lining the sea. Ancient Dor can be seen at the southern tip of the beach.
Early Discounted Tickets can be purchased for 220 NIS. The price includes transportation to and from Tel Aviv and Rehovot. Standard priced tickets will be sold at 240 NIS and includes the same.
