The hot summer days are approaching and you can already get a taste of them before the end of spring and we all start thinking about which water route we will take on our next trip.
Unlike European countries where everywhere you can find a nice stream to wade in, in our neighborhood in the Middle East it is sometimes a bit of a challenging task, especially if you want something close to parking and not to meet crowds of people.
In the Western Galilee, there are several gems such as Ein Hardalit, the path of the Kziv River, Ein Tamir, and more, but due to the fact that they are already famous, they are extremely crowded most days of the week!
A tiny place but a little less known is Ein Kovashim. A lovely corner, with refreshing pools for adults as well, but mainly attractive for those with small children. The big advantage is it is very close to parking, and there is a chance that you won’t be with crowds of people, especially if you arrive in the middle of the week.
From the spring there is a tiny stream that flows along the wooden stairs, a great view of the Mediterranean Sea, and a fun location for a picnic or even to put up a tent for the night in the adjacent parking lot.
Go from Shlomi to the north on the road to Hanita (road 8990). Hanita Forest accompanies us on the right. About 200 m after the turn to the wall and tower site, turn right on a road marked in green with signs for Ein Kovashim, which after about 700 m reaches the Jolly Harel parking lot at the foot of Ein Kovashim.
