Description

Hike through Wadi Makhrour, from Beit Jala to Battir, then have lunch in Battir village. The area is well known for its ancient terraces and stone towers built of neatly placed rocks that used to serve as storage rooms for various crops planted in the wadi.

  • Hike Through Wadi Makhrour expand_more
    • Begin trekking through Wadi Makhrour covering both natural and agricultural landscapes. In 2014, the ancient terraces of Battir were inscribed under the name “Cultural Landscape of Southern Jerusalem.” The nomination attracted great attention to the village, which became one of the most visited places in Palestine for natural recreation. 

    • Encounter ancient Roman tombs cut in the wadi’s grey-brown rocks. One of the tombs was dug in a great rock that clearly was chipped off the nearby cliff and rolled down to the valley.

    • Stop for lunch or dinner in a restaurant overlooking the ancient agricultural terraces.
