More about Via Ferrata:

This unique site is most favored because it is the only cliff in Israel where one can experience the Italian sport called Via Ferrata. We start our expedition with a short downhill hike towards the magnificent cliff nicknamed “Liar Cliff” by its many rock climbing and sport enthusiast fans (ask your tour guide why!). Just standing at the top of the cliff is a visual sensation, with one of the most breathtaking views in all of Israel.  After taking in the view, we start our adventure by rappelling down the cliff all the way to the bottom. Since rappelling is not too intimidating, it is a great place to step into your confidence. Once we have all rappelled to the bottom of the cliff, we will continue on to a very unique activity called Via Ferrata. Via Ferrata, (“Iron Path”) is an Italian term for an extremely fun sport that is new to Israel and can only be done here at this site!

Birds Eye View:

After receiving special equipment from your guide, you will walk on the face of the rock by using cables, rungs, and metal handles, following an advanced rope course called the iron path that is thrilling and adventurous. The Via Ferrata path leads us to a spacious lookout that gives you a birds-eye view of the scenery around and gives you visual access to hills many tourists have never seen before. You will feel like a flying bird as you look down towards the Hula valley below, the Mount Hermon in front, and the chain of volcanic mountains on top of the Golan heights expanding endlessly towards the south. It is truly an awe-inspiring experience that will make this tour the highlight of your time here in Israel.

Free Time Rock Climbing:

When we finish the Via Ferrata course we will have free rock climbing time where you can rock climb at any level and pace you choose. The best part is that you can meet other rock climbers and enjoy the extreme atmosphere all around you. After this great adventure, we will continue to a nearby fortress built by ancient crusaders called the Hunin Fortress. The very hidden and impressive fortress has big rooms and giant stones with lots of ancient history. During the summer we have the option of climbing down a ladder to a water tank that is hidden under the fortress where you can even go for a swim underground! What cooler ending is there to a hot summer’s day?!

Independence:

** Since all the different activities are optional and not dependent on each other, it makes this cliff a perfect choice for the entire group!
