Whether you are looking for a view of the Galilee landscape, a pleasant place to sit for a picnic, an adventurous hiking trail or an experiential bicycle trip, Ahihud Forest is the place for you!
On the road between Akko and Safed, in front of the entrance to the settlement of Gilon, you will find a scenic road along it with several observation points on the Carmel, the Zevulun Valley and Haifa Bay. Along the forest you will find neat parking lots with shaded picnic tables set in a natural grove of eucalyptus, oak and cypress. The benefactors among you will be able to go from there for a hike on the nearby Gamal Mountain and cycling enthusiasts will be able to go from there to the single Ahihud.
Western Galilee Now is a registered non-profit grassroots organization (NGO) promoting awareness and appreciation for the region’s boutique wines, beers, food and produce, along with its cultural diversity, its historic traditions and the area’s scenic routes nestled between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea acting as a Chamber of Commerce to boutique tourism operators in the region.
We expose the visitors to the unique heritage and hospitality through workshops, culinary events, art, music, guides tours, festivals and also through our Tourist Information Center in Akko, owned by JNF USA which we were chosen to operate since Jan. 2016.
Our vision is to develop local and foreign tourism based on close cooperation between all the interested parties in the region.
Come and Taste Experience Discover – the Westen Galilee is NOW!
