Stationnement
Karta lot at the entrance to the Old City by Jaffa Gate (paid) is the closest; Mamilla underground on Alrov Avenue gives a free first hour; Safra Square is a short walk down. Park-and-ride at Mount Herzl, Ammunition Hill or Pisgat Ze'ev and take the light rail if you want to avoid the Jaffa Gate crush entirely.
Y aller
Light rail to City Hall, then 10-15 minutes on foot to Jaffa Gate. Circular bus 38 and buses 1 and 3 serve the Old City.
Temps à prévoirSouthern route about 45 minutes; northern route about 90 minutes ÂgesNot for toddlers or strollers. The walkway is narrow in places with steps, uneven stone and drops behind low parapets - keep hold of children. Intérieur ou extérieurExtérieur Chabbat et fêtesOuvert Meilleur momentLate afternoon for the light and lower heat; in August the evening opening to 21:00 is the pleasant slot. Avoid midday in summer - there is no shade at all. AccessibilitéNot accessible: the operator states plainly that the site has stairs and is inaccessible. No wheelchair or stroller route.
Conseils d'initiés
  • One ticket covers both routes for the whole day, so you can split them around lunch.
  • On Fridays only the southern ramparts and the Jaffa Gate-New Gate stretch are open.
  • Download the free 'Audio tours in Jerusalem' app before you climb - there is no guide on the wall.
  • Exits on the northern route are at Jaffa, New, Damascus, Herod's and Lions' Gates (Fridays: Jaffa and New only).
  • One of the very few ticketed Old City sites open on Shabbat.
