BTT from השריג to השריג via Kashkush Quarter Intersection

Embark on an exhilarating Mountain Biking adventure starting and finishing at HaSherig, located in the Hof HaCarmel Regional Council. This route will take you through the scenic landscapes of the Haifa District, reaching its highest point at the Kashkush Quarter Intersection in Daliyat al-Karmel.

The trail offers a diverse terrain, beginning with relatively smooth paths around HaGfanim before gradually ascending. You'll encounter a mix of technical singletracks and rocky ascents as you make your way towards the higher elevations. Be prepared for some steep climbs that will test your endurance, requiring a good body position and efficient gear usage. As you push towards the peak, the panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys will reward your efforts.

Descending from the Kashkush Quarter Intersection, you'll navigate through more varied terrain, potentially including sections near HaCarmel Park and passing by the cultural heart of Daliyat al-Karmel, with its vibrant markets like Shuq Dalia al-Karmel. The lower sections might offer some faster, flowy descents, making it crucial to maintain control and use your brakes judiciously. The route's lowest point is near HaGfanim, offering a brief respite before the final leg back to HaSherig.

This approximately 29-kilometer route involves a significant elevation gain of around 480 meters, with a total ascent of about 430 meters, and will likely take you just under 4 hours to complete, including stops. You can expect an average speed of around 7.7 km/h.

For those looking for more biking challenges, consider exploring the trails around Nahal Bustan or the viewpoints within HaCarmel Park.

Essential tips for your ride:

  • Gear Up: Ensure your bike is in excellent condition, carry a repair kit, and wear a helmet.
  • Hydration: Bring plenty of water, especially during warmer months.
  • Respect the Environment: Stay on marked trails and pack out all your trash.
  • Navigation: A GPS device or reliable map is recommended for navigating the varied paths.
