April 2014 Israel Scouts

We are happy to invite you to a long-standing tradition in the Israel Scouts. Every Passover, 1415 years old scouts from all over Israel are going to a 4 days journey from sea to sea, where they cross the country from the Mediterranean Sea to the Sea of Galilee. The trip will start with a grand opening ceremony on the Achziv beach and end on the last day at the lake shore. Each day the scouts will hike routes in the Upper Galilee. This trip is in a Rovers Format (every night in a different parking space, according to the direction of walking). The theme of the trip is the love of the nature and cooperation while learning the Land of Israel through the legs.

Host

The hosts of the Sea to Sea trip are the Hebrew Scouts Movement in Israel and the international

groups will be accompanied by the international department.

Dates of the trip:

Because of the large numbers of scouts traveling the country in the same week -

we will have 12 different Sea to Sea trips in 2014. each trip will be 4 days and all of them will be held between 4-13.4.2014 - after registering you could choose the best date for you and we will find a host group for you. we recommend planning a longer trip in Israel and staying before or after the trip!
