April 13 this year is "The Israel Trail Day" - Yom Shvil Yisrael
The Society for the Preservation of Nature announced that several portions of the trail will be open to the public, and will have free activities on-site, including professionally-led tours.
FYI: Some parts of the Trail are always free and open to the public, others are paid-admission parks and nature reserves.
These sites will host special events on April 13.
WARNING: They Will Be Very Crowded!!
