Hiking is one of my stress reliever .

Lake Holon Has two trails, Salacafe and Kule. Salacafe is the easier trail which only takes 3-4 hours to the lake. Kule however is the more difficult trail which takes to about 5-6 hours to Lake Holon.

So when you reach the village where the trail started you need to ride a single motorcycle just to reach the small village where the trill begin. Its has difficult way and hard for the 4 wheels to reach this area

The village
