Ein Zivan: Find hotels for your trip

A trip to Ein Zivan can revolve around a range of themes: seasonal pick-your-own fruit at Bostan Bereshit, the family-run Bahat Winery in Kibbutz Ein Zivan, and a memorial site in the surrounding area. Bostan Bereshit and the winery are located in Ein Zivan; the memorial site is at the Ein Zivan parking lot in the surrounding area. Fruit picking, a winery, and a place of remembrance each offer a distinct focus. When choosing your destination, consider which of these themes you want to shape your stay.

Pick-your-own fruit at Bostan Bereshit

At Bostan Bereshit, you can pick and taste seasonal fruit such as cherries, plums, raspberries, and blueberries. The fruit selection may vary depending on the season and visit date. If a particular fruit is important to you, check what is available before your visit. This lets you plan around the season rather than assume the same fruits will be available on every date.

Bahat Winery and its connection to wine

Bahat Winery offers a different focus: it is a family-run boutique winery in Kibbutz Ein Zivan in the Golan. For travelers looking for a local connection to wine as well as seasonal activities, it offers a different kind of point of interest. The interests are distinct: at Bostan Bereshit, the focus is on picking and tasting fruit; at Bahat Winery, it is on a winery with a family-run boutique character.

Memorial site in the surrounding area

At the Ein Zivan parking lot, in the surrounding area, a memorial site commemorates the fallen soldiers of Reconnaissance Battalion 134. It includes an older Sherman tank, a turret from an armored personnel carrier, a Syrian 122 mm cannon, and memorial plaques. The dedication gives the site its commemorative purpose; the objects listed are its distinctive features. If you also want to consider memorial sites when choosing a destination, this is a separate theme alongside fruit picking and the winery.

Israel in the wider travel picture

Beyond Ein Zivan, the broader destination of Israel offers other landscape and cultural themes. On Israel’s Mediterranean coast, Caesarea National Park occupies the site of a former port city; Caesarea’s Roman theater is now used as a concert venue. Masada is a natural fortress in the Judean Desert overlooking the Dead Sea. For a broader travel comparison, these offer two distinct themes: a former port city with a theater now used as a venue, and a natural fortress in the desert.

Israel’s nature experiences also range from a reef to a named hiking trail. Visitors can snorkel at the reef in Eilat Coral Beach Nature Reserve; snorkeling masks can be rented at the beach. Hermon Stream Nature Reserve (Banias) features the Hanging Trail. Travelers comparing these destinations around the country can weigh a reef and snorkeling against a specific trail.

Among Israel’s historic landscapes is the Biblical Tels heritage site, which extends from Tel Hazor in the north to Tel Beer Sheba near the Negev Desert in the south. The Incense Route heritage site in the Negev Desert encompasses the Nabataean towns of Haluza, Mamshit, Avdat, and Shivta, as well as associated forts and cultural landscapes.
