BTT Levi's a Nahal Arod (Mitzpe Ramon)
Embark on an exhilarating Mountain Biking adventure starting from Levi's in Mitzpe Ramon. As you pedal towards the highest point at Nahal Arod, prepare for a journey through varied terrain. You'll navigate rocky trails and potentially encounter some steep ascents, demanding a good riding posture and efficient use of your gears. The feeling of conquering these sections while surrounded by the unique desert landscape is truly rewarding. This route, located near the Beersheba Subdistrict in the South District of Israel, offers a short but engaging experience, with an altitude difference of approximately 0 meters and a total distance of less than 1 kilometer, taking around 2 hours to complete, mostly due to the stopped time.
The transition to Nahal Arod marks the peak of your elevation, offering a moment to appreciate the expansive views before you begin a gentle descent. The average ascent is around 8 meters per kilometer, and you can expect maximum speeds of about 1.3 km/h, indicating a more technical, slow-paced ride rather than a speed-focused one. The minimum altitude is very close to the maximum altitude, suggesting a relatively flat yet challenging profile.
For an additional biking experience in the area, consider exploring the trails around the Ramon Crater, known for its dramatic geological formations and more demanding routes.
