Set at the foot of the Gilboa, Gan Hashlosha (Also known as ‘Sachne’) is a beautiful recreational park around a set of big natural pools. The pools’ source is a perennial spring whose water are at a pleasant temperature of 82 Fahrenheit, year-round.
In antiquity the Sachne’s water was channeled to operate the big Bath Houses of Nysa-Scythopolis (Beit-She’an) about 4 miles away.
Near the ‘Sachne’s’ main entrance is a children-friendly Kangaroo park (‘Gan Garoo’) and a ‘Tower and Stockade’ (‘Homa Vemigdal’) model, illustrating the 1930’s Zionist settlement pattern in this region.
