Stationnement
Three free lots: an upper lot (large, takes buses, with picnic tables, toilets, drinking water and a kiosk), a middle lot with 90 spaces for private cars only, and a lower lot near Nahal Sorek. The upper lot fills on Fridays, Saturdays and holidays.
Temps à prévoir2–4 hours ÂgesBest from about age six for the full loop; the terraces are steep and stepped, so not a buggy walk. The short accessible path from the upper lot suits everyone. Intérieur ou extérieurExtérieur Chabbat et fêtesOuvert Meilleur momentLate winter and spring — almond blossom around Tu BiShvat and wildflowers on the terraces. In summer start at opening; the terraces are exposed. AccessibilitéA short accessible path from the upper car park reaches a lookout over Nahal Sorek and the Jerusalem hills; the terrace trails themselves are steep, rocky and slippery after rain.
Conseils d'initiés
- The Village Track runs about 2 km down to the lower car park; the Dryland Farming Track is about 3 km and linear.
- Swimming in the spring pools is forbidden, as are fires and overnight stays.
- Start from the upper lot: it has the toilets, drinking water and kiosk.
- Paths get slippery in the rainy season — proper shoes, not sandals.
- Do not walk into the cultivated plots; they are worked by licence holders.
