Great view
Jan 2023
There is a nice hike out to an incredible view of the Sea of Galilee. You are way up here, very worth seeing. Plus there is a lot of history at this site.

Not only for the view
Oct 2021
So easy to get there, and such a reward.
The best is at sunrise...but the site is closed then, but sunset is also amazing.
The view on the lake and far away till the Golan and way after is fantastic.
You just have to hope for a clear day.
You can take the short walk, not tiring at all and you get the best of this site, meaning the amazing view on the lake and the surroundings so far away.
You'll see the cities and villages around as well as other archeological sites (just look at the pictures)

But you can also make some sport of it, only if you're fit because it is rather steep.
Your choice of course, but be careful if you do that in Summer!
Plenty of water, a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen of course.
Enjoy!

Amazing views of the Lake of Galilee
Mar 2022
Impressive views of the Lake of Galilee, and the cliff is on top of the mount, we were due to go down the trail but due to the fact that it rained a few days earlier the trail was closed, and it is very steep as well.
Worth visiting on a clear day.

The views are amazing, we did the red and black route. A little of a challenge with younger kids. Well worth it

Stunning views
Oct 2020
Arbel cliff alows you stunning views towards mount Nitai, Wadi Hamam, Migdal and Lake of Galilee. The main trail which includes the caves and fortress ruins requires going down and climbing and takes about three hours. We took a shorter and easier trail alnog the cliff. Do not forget to stop down the road at the Arbel Synagogue ruins.

History!
Mar 2020
We had a tour guide so all was explained and we were fascinated by the shear amount of history surrounding the area.

Beautiful view of the Galilean region
Mar 2020
This is a great view of the Galilean region. You can get some spectacular shots of the Sea if the sky is clear. You may also get to see some hyacks climbing around.

Gorgeous views
Feb 2020 • Couples
Came here on a pilgrimage of the Holy Land. This is not usually on the tours but our pastor requested it be added. You can see all of the places that Jesus walked during his ministry in the Galilee region. The view is spectacular. Not to be missed. The walk up was about 250 feet and not a bad climb. We had several older couples with walking sticks in our group and they made it just fine. Not more than a 5 to 10 minute walk.
