Yarden Park - a natural phenomenon

"Nature Phenomenon": A light-and-sound show at the Yarden Park When was the last time a 500-year-old tree spoke to you? This is where it will happen. You'll also receive situation tips, dance with a chameleon, and hear experiences from ancient basalt stones. As evening falls on the banks of the Jordan River, visitors to Yarden Park are invited to the park's new attraction—"Nature Phenomenon." This is an activity for the whole family during pleasant evening hours: a funny and educational nighttime light-and-sound show and tour dubbed by the stars of "Eretz Nehederet"! The activity includes a walk along a marked and illuminated path with special lighting that combines music, stories, and humor about the park's animals, trees, stones, and the park's history. The tour lasts about an hour, and you must arrive about a quarter of an hour early. Note: Price—The cost of the tour is 40 NIS per person, age 3 and up. The tour requires advance booking. To make reservations, enter the Yarden Park website. The path is accessible for baby strollers and for people with disabilities; there may be delays at departure times.

You can start the day with a walk on a variety of marked trails suitable for all ages—from a short, shaded, comfortable route to long routes. Continue to find a hidden gem along the Jordan River, by the spring or beside the ancient flour mills, and sit down for a family picnic or with friends. Within the park you can find Tel Beitsaida, a fascinating archaeological site, fishing channels, rafting, and kayaks. The park is spacious, and even in busy periods everyone can find a magical, quiet shady spot beside common reed and flowing water.
