The observation point over the Judean Desert was established in memory of six Jewish travelers who were murdered in Wadi Qelt in the 1990s. Dror Forer and Eran Select fell victim to the hands of Hamas members in 1993. Two years later, members of the National Front murdered students of Yeshiva Ehud Bakhrach from Beit-El and Uri Black of Raanana. Two years later, a local bedouin killed Hagit Zbitzki girls from Kfar Adumim and Liat Castiel from Holon.
A beautiful day trip in the Judean Desert starts in the monastery of Euthymius the Great. It leads us to the water source of Ein Mabuah in the Prat creek, where a spectacular overlook to Wadi Qelt is open. Afterward, it takes us to the Good Samaritan museum with the magnificent mosaic collection, paves the steps to the St. Georgius Monastery in Faran creek, and ends in Nabi Musa - place where Moses was buried by Muslims tradition.
