More about the place

Ein HaMesaya'at is a spring in Nahal Kesalon in the Jerusalem Hills, east of moshav Beit Nekofa and right next to Route 1. The water collects in a square pool carved into the rock, reaching it through a hewn tunnel about 25 meters long, which according to the Antiquities Authority dates back to the Roman period. The site was restored in memory of the 13 soldiers of the support company of reserve battalion 7020 who fell in Jenin in 2002, and next to it are picnic benches and a few trees.
