The Dead Sea area – essentially off limits from June through September due to the succession of 100-degree plus days – should be back on the agenda for fall trekkers, especially before the winter rains, which bring the possibility of flash floods.

Photo by ShutterstockDavid’s Waterfall in Ein Gedi. Photo by Shutterstock Hardy hikers and families with young children can all enjoy the easiest and most accessible hike in the Dead Sea area. (It’s even wheelchair accessible at the beginning.) Nahal David is located within the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve, so there are official opening hours (8am to 5pm weekdays, shorter on Fridays and weekends) and an entrance fee. Just 30 minutes from the entrance is David’s Waterfall – a great picture spot. (You can dip your toes but swimming is not allowed.) Along the way you’ll see plenty of ibex and hyraxes. There’s a large parking lot outside with a small cafeteria and ice cream truck.

Dead sea floatingFloating in the Dead Sea is as touristy as it gets, but really is a must-do when visiting Israel. There’s just something surreal about the sensation you feel when entering the water, as your legs are slowly forced to rise and you find yourself afloat. You’ll probably find it surprisingly hard to stand up, as the salt water of the Dead Sea (it’s eight times more salient than regular seas) takes control of your buoyancy. Don’t fight it, just let go and enjoy! Oh yes, floating in the Dead Sea really is great fun, and will give you a sense of freedom you’ve probably never felt before. Just lie back and soak in the sun.
