Camel Trek Kfar Hanokdim

 How would we manage in the desert without camels, nature’s four-wheel drive? Step into our ranch and meet our beautiful herd of female camels. Once you are acquainted with your new friend, climb onto the saddle, and upsy daisy!
First we’ll take the camel for a “test drive” in the desert. Guided by the Bedouin, for whom the camels are like part of the family, we will ride into the heart of the desert, into its breathtaking primeval landscape. Don’t forget to snap some pictures during the special ride!

You can ask in advance, to change your camel ride to a camel feeding experience.

Trek duration is approximately 30 minutes. 
Camel riding is in pairs, on two-person saddles.
Camel riding is permitted from ages 12 to age 67.
Ages 8-12 can ride accompanied by an adult
Donkey riding is permitted from age 5-12, accompanied by an adult.


Evening time

סיור לילה

We will gather during the arrival of the cool desert nights for a guided stroll through the desert, where we can explore the celestial wonders of the starry night sky and gain knowledge about the unique life in the desert. With proper guidance, we will safely encounter scorpions while experiencing the serene ambiance of the desert during our walk.
The experience ends with a warm Bonfire under a Starlit sky.

Don’t forget to bring closed shoes
