      In the far north of Israel is the Upper Galilee region. Incredibly popular with Israeli’s escaping from the city, the Upper Galilee has everything from skiing at Mount Hermon to ancient ruins, nature reserves to Biblical sites, and beauty like you can’t imagine. With quaint rural communities in the hills and valleys, overlooking nature reserves and beauty spots such as the Hula Valley, the Upper Galilee is a breathtaking and inherently relaxing place.
      AKA: גליל עליון
      This region uses the Uk/Euro style trail grading system.
