Springtime Family Fun

There are many things to see and do during this time of year, but we’ve put together a list of some of our favorite family-friendly activities at INPA sites.

Unveiling History with a Twist

• Visit Beit Guvrin-Maresha National Park and go on a spelunking expedition through the fascinating network of bell caves. While you’re there, challenge yourselves to a Passover-themed scavenger hunt, searching for objects that represent symbols of the holiday.

Springtime Family Fun

• Step back in time at Avdat National Park and explore the ruins of this ancient Nabatean city. Imagine yourselves as pilgrims on a journey, similar to those who might have celebrated Passover here centuries ago. Pack a picnic basket and enjoy a festive meal amidst the historical backdrop.

• Embark on a jeep tour or family-friendly hike through Makhtesh Ramon National Park. Keep an eye out for the vibrant desert wildflowers bursting into bloom. Discuss their significance – a beautiful reminder of Passover’s themes of new beginnings and growth.
• Hike to the waterfalls at Ein Gedi Nature Reserve and discuss the importance of water in both the Passover story and the delicate desert ecosystem.
