Ma'ayan Harod National Park

Ma‘ayan Harod National Park Ma‘ayan Harod, the Harod Spring, emerges here from a rocky cave. The park also features a large swimming pool. At the foot of Mount Gilboa, this is the biblical site where the judge Gideon chose his soldiers to fight the Midianites. Above the spring is the Hankin Museum, with a sweeping view of the Jezreel Valley. It was once the home of Yehoshua Hankin, who purchased land in the valley in the early days of the Zionist enterprise. Hankin and his wife Olga are buried here.
