Whole Family

A magical trip into the heart of the desert, combining a jeep ride through deeply cut wadis, spectacular lookouts and a short walk to a dip in an amazing spring.

We start at our compound (Kfar Adumim junction), where a welcome with cold drinks, coffee and tea is waiting for you.

We drive along the foothills of the Good Samaritan ridge and reach a spectacular lookout over Prat River,

with views of Prat River, Jericho and the Jordan Valley, where our guides give a fascinating explanation.

From there we start down into Prat River, stop at the parking area and walk 200 meters to a beautiful pool of water –

a magical spring called “Ein Afhad”.

After a short dip in the spring, our guides prepare cold watermelon (in summer) or a special herbal tea.

After a short break we continue with the Razors into the heart of the desert, passing a Bedouin encampment of the Jahalin tribe,

and reach an amazing lookout with views of the northern Dead Sea, Ogg River and the biblical Mount Azazel.

We continue along the route over slopes, obstacles and narrow channels

until we reach the starting point, where you can order a meal at our restaurant, HaCnaanit.
