This is a hike that could be done in one day but we broke it up into two.

Part One - Isifya to Hasidim

Picture
Total distance for this leg of the journey is just over 9km, almost all of which is downhill.  The accumulated downhill elevation is 620m.  There is a bathroom and picnic area after about 2km and the big prize - Aldo Ice Cream stand is at Kibbutz Yagur 7km into the hike.  This hike took us 3 and half hours with breaks

We started the hike in the Druze town of Usifya or Isifya, parking on a residential street beside the Israel Trail blaze.  The trail cut to the right into a forest and followed downhill for quite a while, taking us into a valley.  The downhill path was steep at times and we eventually entered a valley then continued downhill until we could see Kibbutz Yagur.   After sipping and slurping at the Italian gelateria we continued through the industrial part of the kibbutz then followed the trail under the highway.  We followed a road until we entered Kfar Hasidim. The road was flat, unsheltered and the heat intense. In Kfar Hasidim,  we found more cold water at a grocery store.
