After a long drive north through the morning traffic jams, we met at Mitzpe Hila. From there we set off for Keren Bratot on an amazing path alongside many oak trees and other beautiful trees, to watch the white lily bloom and the magnificent views. The high green mountains stretch to the Nahariya looks like a gemstone in the green. We found the white lily on the slopes among the rocks, towering on a tall inflorescence column. The heat was already well felt.
We went down to the Kziv stream, on the way down we met two nice people and after a pleasant conversation we continued to the stream and met them again. One of them served us coffee. We waded in the cold water and some sat on the bank of the stream. We drank delicious tea straight from Orna's thermos and walked along the bank of the stream, occasionally crossing it on thick branches or on stones, thus passing from side to side until we reached the trail. On our way we met many schoolchildren who were going on their annual trip.
The entire path is green with the many beautiful trees shading us and the stream, and the sound of the water is so pleasant to the ear. Before the ascent to Montfort, we sat on the bank of the stream for another break, sipping Roni's coffee and tea that friends had prepared together with delicacies. We met our two new friends again.
We climbed a steep, rocky path to the Montfort Fortress. We were impressed by the fortress, which was built during the Crusader era, and the magnificent views that are clearly visible from this high place. We saw groups of students walking on the paths of the Kziv Stream below in the distance.
We returned to Mitzpe Hila after about 11 km of walking, amazed by the amazing hike led by Amit.
