Water Trips in the Misgav Area
Tzalmon River National Park
From the Tzalmon River parking lot to the flour mills.
Where is it located? Highway 804, be
tween Ras al-Ei and Sallama.
The Route — about one kilometer of a lovely flowing brook with several beautiful and shady pools (not deep), ancient flour mills, fruit orchards, and more.
Very easy, and suitable for the whole family.

En Netofa Stream

The Route — The spring is about 120 cm deep and full of beautiful turquoise water. Similar to the Beit Netofa Valley visible from it, it is called Ein Netofa.
The view from the place is amazing and overlooks Beit Netofa Valley. A beautiful pool of water (not always full, depending on the pipe and the time of year.

Water Trips in the Lower Galilee
Tsipori Spring
Where is it located? On the side of the road from the Tzipori interchange (Route 79) to Moshav Tzipori and the National Park.
Route: a group of springs that abound all year round at the foot of shady trees. A beautiful corner and accessible to any vehicle.
Ein Khokuk – Ein Habakkuk: 3 for one price and free!
You arrive at the parking lot and a well-kept grave of a righteous person (I recommend going in and talking to the person who takes care of the place). From the grave, you go under Route 65 on a dirt road.
This is the kind of ancient Kfar Khokuk. In the shade of the oaks is a small pool (which is currently being renovated). You can spread out a mat and enjoy it or go up to the hill to the south and discover the Khokuk excavations – the mosaic is not accessible but the hiding caves allow a glimpse into another world.
