Getting there

Car

If you are traveling by car, start from central Jerusalem and head southeast on Jaffa Street (Derech Yafo). Continue straight until you reach the intersection with King George Street where you will turn left. Follow King George Street until you reach the intersection with Hillel Street, turning right. Continue on Hillel Street until you reach the intersection with the Begin Highway (Route 1). Merge onto Route 1 and follow the signs for Malha. Take the exit towards Malha and keep left on the fork to continue onto Derech Hebron. After a few minutes, you will see signs for Gazelle Valley (Emek Tzvi’im Park). Follow the signs, and you will arrive at the park entrance. Note that parking is available nearby but may incur a small fee.

Public Transportation

To reach Gazelle Valley via public transportation, you can take bus line 66 from the Central Bus Station in Jerusalem. Buses run frequently, approximately every 20-30 minutes. Ride the bus until you reach the 'Emek Tzvi’im' stop. From there, it is a short walk to the park entrance. Make sure to check the bus schedule ahead of time as it may vary depending on the day of the week. A single bus ticket costs around 5.90 NIS.

Walking

If you are near the city center and prefer to walk, you can start from Zion Square. Walk south towards Agron Street and continue on until you reach the intersection with Hillel Street. Turn left on Hillel Street and walk until you reach the Begin Highway. Cross at the designated pedestrian crossing and follow the signs toward Gazelle Valley. The walk may take about 45 minutes, so wear comfortable shoes and bring water.
