The Majrase Nature Reserve is located in the Daliyot Stream estuary, in the southern edge of Bethsaida Valley by the Sea of Galilee. The short walking trail here passes in cool water pools with varied and rich flora of willows, oleanders and Abraham's balms on their banks and introduces the visitors to various animals such as soft-shelled water turtles, stream crabs and dragonflies that fly around. It is speculated that the name of Majrase (grinder) comes from the gristmills which were once in this area or perhaps due to the fine silt which sinks in the estuary and goes into the lake.
