Since my childhood I explored my country to its length and width and the more I knew I felt I must learn more. That is why I studied Geography and History of Israel. In the kibbutz where I lived I taught geography but most of the teaching was outside. I guided young children and adults in various trails all over my beloved country. In 1996 I was appointed as manager of Hatzeva field School in the Arava which is part of the Israeli desert. The school deals with teaching and researching the natural habitat in the desert. I got a lot of experience guiding young students and adults in the wilderness of the desert. I completed my studies at the Ministry of Tourism and became a licensed Tourist Guide. I started guiding tourists all over Israel but my specialty is the desert. In 2008 I hiked to the length of Israel on "Israel Trail" (at that time 940km and now more than 1000km). Since then I started guiding groups on Israel Trail, which about half of it pass through the desert and finish in the south on the shore of the Red Sea near Eilat. There are many beautiful trails in the mountains near Eilat where the geology is unique and the landscapes are extraordinary. I can walk the same trail hundreds of times and it will never be the same. The air, weather, colors, passing animals and of course the guided travelers - all give me sheer excitement as I do it again.

I am not a driver

The mountains of Eilat provide some of the best hikes in Israel. One of the most popular sites and personal favorite is the Red Canyon.

Carved in colored sandstone this hidden canyon is remarkably unique and will make you feel like in a movie or another planet; I can walk the same trail everyday and still feel amazed every single time. .

It's a short walk of about 1. 5 hours and accessible to all ages. There is some effort as we walk inside and outside the Red Canyon using ladders.

In our tour we also climb to Mt. Yoash which is a beautiful lookout towards the gulf of Eilat and the Egyptian border. Wild goats, dassies, photo op moments and my full excitement will be on demand!
