More about the place

Nahal David is a stream that flows year-round in the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve, in the Dead Sea Rift, and is named after King David, who according to the Book of Shmuel stayed in the strongholds of Ein Gedi when fleeing from Shaul. In the lower section of the stream, which has an entrance fee, there are four waterfalls that flow all year, and along the trail you can spot ibexes and rock hyraxes. Following an unusual flash flood in May 2025, the reserve was restored, and the lower section reopened at the end of September 2026, with new trails and railings.
