Yehudiya Camping Ground

Golan Heights


This well-lit camping area is securely fenced (against wild boars and jackals) and has shade tents and barbecue pits; the hot showers are supposed to reopen in 2018. If there’s no one around, just make yourself at home and pay in the morning. Bags can be left at the reserve's information counter (when it’s open), near which there are valuables lockers (10NIS).
