About Golan Heights

The Golan Heights is a volcanic plateau east of the Sea of Galilee, about 200 km from Jerusalem (roughly 2.5 hours by car). It is known for the Banias waterfall, nature reserves, wineries and panoramic viewpoints over the Hula Valley and Mount Hermon. A private taxi gives you the freedom of a full-day route: the Banias spring in the morning, a winery tasting, lunch in a Druze village, and sunset views over the valley.

1Banias waterfall

A medieval fortress on the slopes of Mount Hermon with views over the entire Golan.
