Shvil
Walking the length of Israel.
The Israel National Trail (ישראל שביל) connects Kibbutz Dan, at the foot of Mount Hermon, with Eilat, on the Red Sea.
Shvil is my journal of completing the 1,100 km trail in Spring 2019. In poetic form, each stanza captures the essence of each day.
I recommend this hike. Beyond the history, Israel boasts a diverse and beautiful landscape. Every day offers something unique to absorb and ponder.
A third of the way into the walk, Linda injured her foot. With her support, I completed most of the remaining distance on my own.
