A trip to Agmon Hula

Today, we took advantage of the beautiful warm weather and the fact that I had no classes until 7:00 in the evening to take a little trip to Agmon Hula. This is an area to the north of the Hula Reserve that also features migrating birds. We had been there once before, but only to the parking lot that time, since we didn't have time to make the circuit. This time we had plenty of time. The circuit is about 11 km long, so it's a bit far to walk. Therefore, they rent out electric golf carts and various bicycles and other pedal vehicles. We decided to opt for a golf cart. In this and several subsequent posts, I'll show you some of the pictures that I took.

Let's start with various views to the west and south. In this first picture, we are looking south and slightly west. The farthest hill that you see is Har Kna'an (Mt. Canaan), which is the hill that Tsfat, where we live, sits on.

Here's Keren Naftali, a hill which is not so tall but is very prominent and very visible from many angles all around it. In the foreground, of course, you can see the cart that we rented, with David sitting in it.
Here's another view of Keren Naftali, together with its reflection in the lake, from nearly the opposite point on the circuit.

In this view, you can see Keren Naftali on the extreme left and the cliffs of Nakhal Kedesh on the extreme right. The tree reflected in the lake adds to the beauty of this scene, I think.

Here's another, closer view of those same cliffs. In the foreground in this picture, you can also see a building that serves as a "bird blind", for observing birds without disturbing them.

This picture was actually taken from a different place, over at the base of Nakhal Kedesh. In this view, we are looking up at the cliffs through a flowering tree.
In the next post, I'll show you some pictures of Har Khermon (Mt. Hermon) and Menara.
