Revisiting A Favorite Park On The Banks Of The Jordan River

Yesterday we were looking for a spot to spread a picnic blanket and returned to this wonderful park on the banks of the Jordan river, just South of Kiryat Shemona. One parks the car at a parking lot just before "gesher Yosef", then crosses the bridge and goes down into the park.

Gorgeous manicured grass, and beautiful landscaping awaits........

There is even some rushing water if you walk down the promenade just a bit......

Or maybe just park yourself on the grass and watch all the rafters go by......

Better yet, do take that walk down the lovely promenade.......

Here's the information in hebrew about this precious not so well known spot called "Tayelet Shvil Ami", but put gesher yosef into your gps and you'll certainly find it. And by the way, there is not entry fee, and even on the days of chol hamoed when the whole country is on vacation, there are still many places to put your blanket away from crowds, just do walk down a bit......I only discovered this after taking a walk myself! And I'll know better next time.

Gotta run more busy days of passover ahead, and wishing you all a wonderful ending to the glorious holiday!
