Camping in Israel

When you desire a real holiday out in the midst of nature, the perfect way would be lodging under the skies in a large tent with  the glittering stars overhead, the sounds of the  crickets and trickling water in the background, the cool breeze and an extraordinary magical feeling of being out in the countryside.

On the many camping sites, the majority of which offer free entrance or a very small entrance fee, you will find convenient toilets and showers with hot water, barbeque stands, picnic tables, kitchenettes with basic utensils including refrigerators, electricity outlets and tent hire for families and groups, in addition to shaded huts and, of course, lots of nature.

Some of the camping sites offer their own special attractions such as: games facilities for children, swimming pools, drumming circles, karaoke nights, antelope farms, fishing and more. Other camping sites offer a variety of activities with walking and cycling routes, jeep tours or extreme sports such as rafting and tire rafts.More details on on the sit Bed and Breakfast accommodation in Israel ZimmerIL.

At some of these places the entrance fee to the camping sites also includes entrance to the national park.
