Hurbat Sa’adim (Sa'adim Ruin), which is in the mountains of Jerusalem, offers those who visit it many ancient trees and archeological remains. All of this is beyond the fact that the Sa'adim Ruin is a popular site which offers many pleasant shaded picnic areas. From here one can also leave on hikes around the area, including to the famous Shvil HaMa’ayanot (the Springs Trail). Sa'adim Ruin itself includes a few ancient structures which served in the Byzantine period as a local monastery, a wine press and water cisterns. Because Sa'adim Ruin was once considered sacred, some large and impressive oak and carob trees still stand here. A few hundreds of meters to the west of Sa'adim Ruin is found Ein Sa'adim (Sa'adim Spring), which pours into two pools that served the farmers of the area in the past. Around Ein Sa'adim are found orchard trees and in its canals water vegetation flourishes.
Arrival at Hurbat Sa’adim (Sa'adim Ruin): from road number 3877, which leads to the "Yad Kennedy” memorial, according to the signs.
