List of trail angels in HEBREW
תוכן עניינים
Instructions for Hikers[]
This is the only updated list of trail angels. It is updated based on the Hebrew list which is maintained by the trail angels. All other lists on the www , are not up to date, some of them are poorly maintained, and all of them are managed by the site owners. Please check also the low cost accommodations and B&B.
Trail angles host hikers during the hike. Please avoid staying with them immediately after landing or before you leave back home. Abraham hostels (listed in low cost accommodations) in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Eilat other palces too, will gladly host you upon arrival and departure.
Trail angels are good people along the Israel National Trail (INT) who open their hearts and their homes for hikers on the INT, free of charge. There are places that charge low prices for accommodations, they are listed on a separate page. You will be staying at private homes, rooms in Kibutzim, or sleep on the back or front lawn in your sleeping bag. In most places you can take a shower use the rest rooms, sometimes use the internet and occasionally cook your dinner inside the house. In some places you can have breakfast for a low fee. Pillows, blankets or sheets are not provided by trail angels. Please maintain during the hike a reasonable personal hygiene. Upon arrival to a trail angel take extra effort to remove unpleasant odors in the shower, and wash your clothes. Do not feel offended if you are asked to take an extra shower.
Smoking while staying with a trail angel is prohibited unless specifically allowed by your host. When smoking go out of the house and yard.
Using drugs of any type is illegal . Hikers who use drugs while staying with a trail angel will be asked to leave the place. They might be reported to the authorities.
The list of trail angels is arranged from Dan in the north to Eilat in the south.
Please contact the trail angel at least 48 hours prior to arrival and not after 21:00.
If you need to cancel your arrival please call the trail angel as soon as possible.
Some trail angels observe the Shabbat (Saturday)and Jewish Holidays, they are identified on the list as SHO. In such cases we kindly ask you to arrive on Friday at least 1 hour before sunset and to stay until after sunset on Saturday uless the trail angel agrees otherwise. If the (religious) trail angel lives close to the INT they will usually not object if you leave the house on Saturday morning on foot. Please inquire when contacting the trail angels. Do not call places where the Shabbat and Jewish holidays are observed, between: Friday 1 hour before sunset to Saturday 1 hour after sunset. The same applies to Jewish holidays: Rosh Hashana (the Jewish new year), Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Passover, and Shavuot. Please arrive and leave at a reasonable time of the day. Do not smoke while staying with a trail angel. On the morning of your departure please clean the room and leave it in a proper condition.
Places are listed from north to south. If you can't find the exact location of a village using the maps / index in the guide, it might be slightly off the map.
The list is continuosly updated. Please check as you hike to verify the most recent updates.
There is a list of low cost accommodations. Please review under tab #4. In the desert there are several water caching and pickup service providers, this service is not free of charge.
If you identify a trail angel that is not hosting anymore, kindly report on the forum her/his name, cell # and the place she/he is listed.
