Roads of Israel

Nestled along the Mediterranean Sea, Israel offers a driving journey that melds ancient tales with diverse landscapes. From the biblical stories to modern narratives, every road whispers of ages gone by.

Kickstart your expedition with the Dead Sea Highway, the planet's lowest road, offering views of the sea's shimmer and the adjacent rugged mountains. Not far south, the Border Road #10 runs beside the Israel-Egypt boundary, a reminder of both the vast desert and regional geopolitics.

The Ma'ale HaAtzmaut, part of Highway 40 in the Negev desert, showcases the stark beauty of Israel's arid regions, interspersed with desert flora. As you steer away from the desert's mystique, the coastal Mediterranean routes dazzle with azure waves and guarding cliffs. The north, in contrast, boasts winding routes through verdant valleys and impressive peaks.

In essence, Israel's roads are more than mere transportation channels; they're a dive into the nation's soul. Whether on coastal drives or desert trails, Israel promises a fresh tale at every bend.
