Meet En Avdat National Park

At the foot of Midreshet Ben Gurion, the Tsin Stream has carved out a deep and impressive canyon. Three springs feed a brook that flows all year round, and an enchanted oasis. En Avdat – the kingdom of ibex and vultures.

Monks’ caves: in the Byzantine period the caves were used by monks seeking seclusion, and they overlook the canyon.
