Einot Tsukim

Between the barren cliff and the blue of the Dead Sea is the green enchanted oasis of Einot Tsukim, or in its additional name, Ein Fashkha. This is the lowest Nature Reserve in the world and one of the most beautiful in Israel. In this beautiful place, fresh water flows into several pools and from there into the Dead Sea. Here you can find pools for dipping the feet or for swimming, which are filled with natural spring water. Between them are streams and channels and also an archeological site from the time of the Second Temple, featuring an estate house, watering pool, a garden and a rare and unique installation with the help of which the persimmon perfume was produced. The reserve’s streams flow among shaded picnic tables, which allows for eating while dipping one’s feet in the cool water. The southern part of this nature reserve is called the "Hidden Reserve" and here one can go only with a guided tour.
