At the top of the hill, we meet the entrance to the park and the inscription as follows: TEL GEZER NATIONAL PARK Welcomes you! Tel Gezer is one of the most important biblical sites in Israel. It contains impressive remains, among them the city walls, a massive tower, and a monolith temple, all from the Canaanite period. "Solomon's Gate“ was also discovered, as well as the Gezer Calendar (the most ancient Hebrew inscription ever found), dated to the Israelite period. Please observe the following rules: • Do not harm the antiquities, flora, and fauna! • Moving in vehicles is prohibited! Danger - open pits! Use only marked paths! • The lighting of fires is forbidden! • Do not remain in reserve after dark. Keep the area clean. Enjoy your visit! Israel Nature and Parks Authority
A walk along Tel Gezer reveals the most unexpected and amazing moments of the distant past. The oldest Hebrew inscription was found here. The giant pagan altar of Canaan was found here. The city gates of the times of King Solomon were found here. Spring is the best time for walking. A green carpet of lush grass covers the hill slopes, and trails lead to the cold waters of a natural spring in the middle of wheat fields.
