More about the place

Switzerland Forest is a forest on the slope that descends from the Poriya Ridge to the Kinneret, west and south of Teveria. Foresters of the British Mandate government began planting the forest in 1927 to prevent erosion and mudslides, and it contains cypresses, acacias, eucalyptuses, terebinths, and carobs. KKL paved a scenic road, picnic grounds, and lookouts here, and in its northern part is the Carl Lutz Lookout, which features a covered pavilion and an expansive view of the Kinneret and the Golan Heights.
