Wandern durch Israel

The Israel National Trail (INT), largely unknown in Germany, is one of the world-famous long-distance hiking trails. Stretching 940 km, it winds through a uniquely diverse nature, avoiding towns, from the far north to the Red Sea in the south. Hikers can expect a dual experience: land and people beyond all clichés, paths of varying difficulty, tranquility, reflection, and fascinating regions. One walks with the author over mountains and rugged cliffs by the sea, climbs through deep and steep wadis, and meets people who enthusiastically introduce their country to foreigners. Wittekind's report describes the route from the Syrian-Israeli border to Jerusalem. Already a knowledgeable traveler in Israel, he and his wife discover a new world of slowness while hiking, filled with many interesting encounters that profoundly change their perspective on Israel.
