More about the place

The Reihan Forest Reserve, also known as the Umm Reihan Forest, is the largest remaining natural forest in Judea and Samaria: dense woodland of Palestine oak and terebinth in the northern Shomron, near the yishuv of Reihan. In the heart of the forest stands the Forester's House from the British Mandate period, and from its roof there is a view of the treetops in all directions. Next to the house there is an organized picnic and parking area, and a marked trail of about two kilometers circles around it through the forest.
