Starfall in the Negev Desert

Every year in August, in low-light areas of the Negev Desert, you can see the peak of the Perseid meteor shower - the brightest starfall of summer. The Earth passes through a plume of dust particles that, burning in the atmosphere, leave bright traces. Crowds hurrying to make wishes looking at the "shooting stars" rush to field campsites for the night, and there are more people then stars. We found our route in this mess and are ready to share it with you. In addition to the starry sky, we offer the breathtaking view of the Great Crater, colored sands and Yorkeham springs. Let's go, not far here, behind the mountain.
