Beit Zayit Reservoir

In Hebrew: מאגר בית זית

Please note: According to Wikipedia, there have been drownings in the reservoir due to the muddy banks. Do not enter the water.

A beautiful, green trail with plenty of benches and trees, leading to a stunning water reservoir that makes you feel like you just hopped abroad for a moment.

How to get there

Drive on Route 1 toward Jerusalem. Exit at the Motza Interchange onto the access road to Beit Zayit. Immediately after the turn, take a small turn leading to a dirt road. Drive on the dirt road until you reach a fork, where you turn left. Continue driving on the rough road (right next to the bike path) until you reach the start of the trail, where you park the car.

Covered? Lit?

Not lit, partially shaded

Tips from the community

The recommended season is winter–spring, but it is also really pretty there in the summer, even if the lake is dry :) There are lots of shaded benches along the way.
