Mount Tabor (Shibli) to Nazaret Illit (#10a)

April 27, 2015

This is a beautiful part of the Israel Trail.  We spend most of it winding through forested country roads.  A real treat.  However, it was our latest start ever.  We did not get onto the trail until 3pm.  The plan was to walk to Hoshaya which looked to be 19km away but we lost the trail at some point near Nazareth Illit and had to abandon the plan or risk walking in the dark.

We were following a 4WD road and must have missed the cutoff to the right, continuing instead on a road that just abruptly ended.  We had to scramble uphill through thorny bramble setting our sites on the power lines and cemetery ahead where we knew there would be a road.  It was only when we go to the road that we really figured out where we were.  We continued road walking for  about 1.5 km before going back to a supermarket where we could get a cab to the car that was left at Hoshaya.

Elevation Details: 550m uphill and 320m downhill.  
Avg speed was around 4km/hour
