Pinsteps. Ein Bokek fortress and view of the rocks
Places to visit in Israel. Languages: en, ru

Having descended from the cliffs and looking at the path taken, you can be convinced of the significance and grandeur of the surrounding rocks. The best time to walk this route is the second half of the day when the sun goes behind the stones and the path passes in the shade. You can also see a palm tree and sugar cane suddenly appearing in the middle of lifeless mountains. They live in the region briefly because the water rolls down from the hills in waterfalls and flows through the layers and out as a source.

Bokek Stream adventure Uncover History! Hiking near the Dead Sea on Jan 11, 2024

Your day hike along the Bokek Stream promises to be enriching and exciting. Starting from Tsuk Tamrur, a name that testifies to British oil exploration attempts in the 1930s, you will proceed towards Bokek Fortress near the Dead Sea. Along the way, you'll encounter stunning landscapes and learn many stories, including the region's geological past. This journey offers insights into human activities and natural phenomena, such as the Syrian-African Rift, which led to the formation of the Dead Sea Valley.

As the sun sets behind the mountains in the evening, you'll descend into the Dead Sea Valley. This part of the route is awe-inspiring due to its dramatic elevation drop of about four hundred meters. The view from the observation deck is breathtaking, especially during twilight. This unique blend of history, geology, and incredible natural beauty makes the hike along the Bokek Stream an unforgettable experience.
