Tel Azekah is a lovely place for an easy family hike.
There are several picnic tables near the parking lot, and from there, it takes about 20 minutes to get to the top of the hill. On the road through the forest, there are explanations about the place and verses telling the story of the famous battle that took place here between David and Goliath. In the area you will see the archaeological excavations that took place here several times
From the hi,ll there are stunning views of the entire area and a place to rest near a large tree with stone benches. Families with small children walk around the mound and tell the children about the battle, and it is lovely. Most descend back the same way.
We preferred to extend a little.We continued with the black arrow marking a field of chrysanthemums, and from there, we went down and turned right to join the path from which we came.
You can and should continue for a picnic further on in Britannia Park: when you drive along the road, there are several parking lots with KKL-Junk tables and benches.
