Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Car
If you're driving, head towards the city of Arbel. From Jerusalem, take Route 1 towards Tel Aviv, then merge onto Route 6 (the Trans-Israel Highway) heading north. Continue on Route 6 and take the exit towards Route 77 towards Tiberias. Follow Route 77 until you reach the junction with Route 85. Turn left onto Route 85 and continue until you see signs for Arbel National Park. The park entrance will be on your right. Be sure to check for any parking fees, which may vary.
Public Transportation
To reach Arbel National Park using public transport, start in Jerusalem and take a bus to Tiberias. The Egged bus company operates routes from Jerusalem to Tiberias. Once in Tiberias, you can catch a local bus or taxi to Arbel. Look for bus lines that head towards the Arbel area. The trip may take around 2-3 hours depending on connections. Confirm the current bus schedules as they may vary and be sure to have small change or a bus card for fares.
Taxi
Alternatively, if you prefer a more direct route, you can take a taxi from Tiberias to Arbel National Park. This option is more expensive but will save you time. Make sure to agree on a price before starting the journey or use a ridesharing app if available. The taxi ride should take about 15 minutes from Tiberias to the park entrance.
