Have you ever wanted to climb up a mountain as water is rushing around you? Ein Tina spring is the perfect spot!
Ein Tina is a spring that starts half way up the side of the of the Golan heights. and runs down into the Kinneret.
The nice, cool rushing water makes for the perfect stop in the middle or at the end of a long day.
There is a pool at the foot of the stream which is great for small kids to play in.
The water isn’t very deep (at most places around knee high which makes it great for children).
For the older children there is a circular route that allows you to climb up the mountain side to the source of the stream. recently railings were put in because the wet rocks can be quite slippery.
There is a secondary path that takes a dry route back to the lower pool.
Ein tina is a great experience! It makes for a nice and easy climb up hill walking against the rushing water.
The walk is rocky and you should definitely wear water shoes. Bring drinking water and snacks.
