Gush Etzion and Hebron Hills

Tekoa Forest

In Hebrew: יער תקוע

Please note: In the wadi near Tekoa, two boys who went out for a hike were murdered in 2001. It's a good idea to check the security situation before heading out.

More about the place

Tekoa Forest is an old pine grove dating back to the British Mandate era, right on the desert border at the entrance to the yishuv of Tekoa, serving as a gateway to the Nahal Tekoa Nature Reserve. Inside the forest are walking trails cleared by local youth and residents, shaded picnic tables, a water fountain, and a view of the Herodium. Below the road, in the riverbed, the yishuv's youth built a stone wading pool about half a meter deep.
