On the one hand, an array of paths will be built, a promenade will be built on the site, seating areas will be set up from local stone and direction and explanation signs will be installed.



The works included widening the creek strip and making it accessible to the public by creating a promenade, while strengthening the park, including ecological-environmental aspects.

This allows a quiet area for pedestrians and cyclists only in the center of the Nahal Tzipori section, which is of the highest quality and has the largest flows.



From an ecological point of view, the plan has widened the creek strip and created physical protection, which prevents vehicles from approaching the canal and even removes the edges of agricultural fields and grazing.

The river environment was made accessible to the public by a system of paths for pedestrians and cyclists, while addressing the required balance between plant restoration and the intensity of touring activity in the river.

In addition, stopping and paddling areas have been set up in designated ponds without allowing damage to other ecologically sensitive areas, restoring native plant species and eliminating invasive species.



Yaakov Quint, Director of the Israel Land Authority and Chairman of the Open Spaces Fund: This is one of the most beautiful areas in the country that the Israel Land Authority, through the Open Spaces Fund, has chosen to fund its restoration and accessibility to the general public.
