Good place for a picnic. There is also a large and very shallow lake (a rainwater reservoir), however you're not supposed to swim in it.
Yeruham Park is a large urban and ecological park located on the western outskirts of the town of Yeruham in the northern Negev, Israel. The park spans an area of approximately 3,000 to 4,000 dunams, making it one of the largest green oases and planted woodlands in the Israeli desert. It features a massive artificial lake, extensive pine and eucalyptus forests planted by the Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael (KKL-JNF), ancient archaeological remains, and diverse wildlife habitats.

Israel's second largest erosion crater, after the Ramon Crater. Its edge is located several km east of Yerucham. There are hiking trails in and around the crater. Start by visiting Mount Avnon - on the road out of Yerucham, make a left turn just before beginning the descent to the crater. Mount Avnon has a magnificent view of the region.
