Wadi el Maleh

It is within the basin of the Lower Jordan River near Highway 90 and is very low-watered, with the exception of storm discharge periods.

[citation needed] It starts in Samarian Hills at the altitude of 600 metres (2,000 ft) [citation needed] northwest of Tubas and flows into the Jordan Valley in the area between Mehola and Shadmot Mehola.

(Its lower flow marks the southern boundary of the Beit She'an Valley.

It follows geological faults and makes a nearly 90 degree kink northwards in the area where Road 5799 joins the Allon Road and further arcs around Shadmot Mehola to flow into the Jordan River in the west-to-east direction at about 32°21′14″N 35°33′19″E / 32.3539°N 35.5552°E / 32.3539; 35.5552.

Places of note along the stream include Hammam el Maleh [he], a hammam by mineral hot springs, and Burj el Maleh [he], a Mamluk fortress.
