Off-Road Tour in the Shephela
A great and unique way to reach the less known sites in the Judean Foothills (the “Shephelah”). It would be best if executed in the early spring (February-March) when everything is green and blooming!
The tour will start by tracking the “Burma Road.” This dirt road enabled providing vital supplies to Jerusalem during the 1948 Israeli-Arab war. The steep “serpentines” will be incredibly challenging, where only real 4×4 off-road vehicles can pass.
We continue along the “Sculptures forest” to the top of Tel Tzora, where we view and review the Legacy of the mighty Biblical figure of Samson. At Tell Beth-Shemesh, we will get off the road to track a new and somewhat sensational discovery – the possible place where the ark of the covenant may have been placed.
