Description: Mount Hermon is the pearl of Golan Heights. With its 2,040 meters (about 1.27 mi) of height, it is the highest mountain in Israel and can be seen from many places in the area; in clear days one can see from there all the Golan Heights and the Upper Galilee, and sometimes even the Lower Galilee with the Kinneret Lake (aka Sea of Galilee). It is one of the only places in Israel which gets covered with snow during a big part of the winter, so naturally is the only Israeli ski resort. If you are coming in the months of spring-summer-autumn, snow is something that you won't see there. But you will enjoy a thrilling road up and down the mountain, with nice curves, a stunning view from the top, and probably a gorgeous Druze meal in Majdal Shams. Also, in case you took your time in the previous stops and get to the Hermon near the end of the day, Majdal Shams has some nice new hotels where you can enjoy the best of Druze hospitality.
