Gold-DateGev Hava
In Hebrew: גב חווה
Please note: The descent to the gev is steep, with handholds and narrow passages, and the pool is up to about three meters deep. Not suitable for young children.
One of the most beautiful desert pools in the Negev, located inside a shaded canyon beneath a 25-meter chute waterfall. At its peak, it forms a pool 3 meters deep and 10 meters across.

How to get there
Pay attention: when arriving from the Israel National Trail, there is a trail split (INT, blue, and black). The black trail doesn't appear on the map, but it is the path to the large gev. The trail splits off the Israel National Trail the moment you descend into the stream bed, and then you head up the stream to the gev. The ascent/descent from the south is not easy. Not for people with disabilities or young children. The trail runs along the southern wall of the stream and descends steeply into the stream northeast of the pools. There are several narrow passages and metal rungs for gripping. As soon as you descend, continue southwest inside the channel up to the gev.
Covered? Lit?
Shaded (by the rock), not lit
Tips from the community
In a normal spring the water depth is about three meters and the pool is over ten meters long! Toward the end of the summer the water quality drops due to the pigeons nesting above.
