ROSH HANIKRA

The fascinating tourist attraction of Rosh Hanikra is located at the most north-western corner of Israel, the only point in the country where the sea meets the mountains. Visiting the site is suitable for families of all ages and is recommended all year round!

 

 



AT THE SITE


Cable car

The cable car route which is the shortest and steepest in the world, takes the visitors 70 meters down at a 60 degrees angle. The view from the cable car is nothing but magnificent.

The Grottos – A Ravishing Natural Phenomenon

A short walk at the heart of the cliff reveals the grottos which are actually marine caves. The grottos were created following a series of subterranean tremors which cracked the rock. Rainwater flowing through these cracks and the gushing sea waves created this natural phenomenon, unique in Israel!


Bicycling/ golf car

bicycles can be rented for excursions along the esplanade; the tour goes through a nature reserve full of inlets, fauna and flora.

Audiovisual Presentation

The sea, the mountains and what's within them are revealed to the visitors in their full splendor. You will have the opportunity to learn about site’s history as well as on its varied fauna and flora.
The audiovisual presentation is suitable for all types of audience.


Restaurant overlooking the open sea, snack bars



Accessibility for Disabled at Rosh-Hanikra site


Rosh-Hanikra site is only partially accessible for Disabled:  An access bridge, about 100 meters long, leading comfortably, in a spectacular view, to the cable-car which will take you down to the grottoes. The grottoes, due to its natural excavation in the rocks, are only partially accessible to Disabled. It is possible to go with a wheelchair down to the first grotto and watching it from above, and also partially of the second one. At this stage you should turn back with the wheelchair since the rest of the route involves a narrow passageway and stairs. The audio-visual show and W.C. are fully accessible.

It is recommended to tour the site wearing sports shoes or rubber-soled shoes that are not slippery
