We will hike around the two small settlements of Gilon and Tzurit. Tzurit is a community settlement in northern Israel situated west of Karmiel. This is a beautiful hike where we hope to see early spring flowers, especially after the rains. We continue onto Gilon and then to mount Gilon. This is a hilly part of the Galilee with ascents and descents and classed as moderate to hard.
