Sea to Sea Hiking Trail

The Sea to Sea Hiking Trail (Hebrew: שביל מים לים, Shvil MiYam LeYam) is a long distance hiking trail that crosses the north of Israel, its western end on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea at Achziv National Park near the Lebanese border in the far north of the country, extending eastward to the coast of the Sea of Gallilee near Kibbutz Ginosar, with a total length of about 70 km (43 mi).

The trail boasts abundant fauna and flora, winding its way close to numerous springs and archeological sites.

Camping is not allowed in nature reserves, limiting the number of possible itineraries.

On days 3 and 4 the route aligns almost entirely with a segment of the Israel National Trail.

The journey was designed to toughen the participants and included carrying all the necessary food and equipment.
