BTT de Nahal Sahaf a Naẖal Shuva (Eshkol Regional Council/Beersheba)

Embark on an exhilarating Mountain Biking adventure from Nahal Sahaf in the Eshkol Regional Council to Naẖal Shuva in Beersheba. This route offers a dynamic experience for riders, with a total distance of approximately 29 kilometers and an elevation gain of around 277 meters. You'll navigate a varied terrain, transitioning from the initial arid landscapes near Nahal Sahaf to the more rugged paths leading towards The Badlands Lookout, our point of maximum elevation.

As you ascend towards The Badlands Lookout, expect some challenging climbs that will test your endurance. The views from this vantage point in the Eshkol Regional Council are spectacular, offering a sweeping panorama of the surrounding badlands, a perfect spot to pause and appreciate the raw beauty of the landscape. From here, the trail descends, offering thrilling technical descents as you make your way towards Naẖal Sha‘arta, the point of minimum elevation.

The path continues through areas like Nahal HaBsor and near Beeri, where you might encounter remnants of history, such as the Old Beeri viewpoint or the British Bunkers, adding a layer of cultural exploration to your ride. The terrain will vary, featuring rocky sections, smooth dirt paths, and potentially some sandy patches, demanding good bike handling skills and a confident riding posture.

The final stretch towards Naẖal Shuva in Beersheba provides a satisfying finish, with the landscape gradually changing as you approach the city. This route is estimated to take around 2.5 hours of active riding, but allow for an additional 35 minutes of stopped time to truly soak in the surroundings. You might even consider a detour to explore the nearby Alumim Junction to South area for additional MTB trails.

Practical Tips for your ride:

Hydration is key: Carry plenty of water, especially during warmer months.
Trail Etiquette: Always yield to hikers and be mindful of other trail users.
Bike Check: Ensure your brakes and gears are in good working order before you start.
