Nahal Snir
A nature reserve on one of the Jordan River's tributaries. The Snir Stream (Hatsbani) has a powerful flow here, and if you're lucky you can see various forms of wildlife.
Established in 1907 by workers from the nearby Jewish town of Metulla, Tel Hai was attacked by an Arab militia in 1920. Eight people were killed in the attack, including Joseph Trumpledor, one of the few Jewish pioneers at the time to have any military experience. In retrospect this is often seen as the very first military confrontation of the Israeli-Arab conflict. Trumpledor's alleged last words were "No matter, it is good to die for our country" and for decades afterwards he was seen an Israeli military hero. Now the site has been restored as a museum about the early Jewish pioneers who lived here.

The eight pioneers killed in Tel Hai are buried here. Near their grave, in 1934 a large statue of a lion was erected as a memorial to them.
A beautiful nature reserve with the largest water spring in the Middle East. It also contains a Biblical Tel, the ruins of ancient Dan, famous for the Israelite temple uncovered there. You can see the remains of the altar built by King Jeroboam as an alternative to worship in Jerusalem, as well as Abraham's Gate which is one of the world's earliest attested arch constructions, dating to around 1700 BCE when (according to the Bible) Abraham visited the area. Nearby Ussishkin House is a museum documenting the Tel and its natural environment. The Israel National Trail begins here.
