Itinerary

Louis Promenade

one hour

Overlooking the shimmering coastline of northern Israel, Louis Promenade in Haifa offers more than just a scenic stroll. From this tranquil ridge, visitors can gaze northward all the way to Rosh Hanikra—and beyond, to the Lebanese border, just a short distance away. The promenade provides a striking reminder of how close conflict zones are to Israel’s population centers, and how geography shapes both security and civilian life. As the tour begins here, participants gain their first visual understanding of the strategic vulnerability and resilience that define Israel’s northern frontier.
Stop 2

one hour

A Bedouin village overlooking the Lebanese border, bore the brunt of frontline warfare during the 2024 conflict. Repeatedly targeted by Hezbollah rockets and drones, the village saw homes damaged and residents evacuated. A major attack in April struck a community building, injuring soldiers and civilians. Today, the calm belies the village’s story of endurance, displacement, and steadfast return.
Talking Walls

1 h 30 min

Nestled directly along the Israel–Lebanon border, the Talking Walls installation in Shtula is both an artistic and strategic landmark. These vibrant murals, painted on the very walls that separate the kibbutz from Lebanon, tell stories of hope, identity, and determination. But behind the art, lies a stark reality: Shtula was heavily targeted during the war, with homes damaged and lives disrupted just meters from the border fence. Standing here, guests gain a visceral sense of how art, community, and defense intersect on the frontlines.
Menara

1 h 30 min

Perched atop the cliffs overlooking Lebanon, the kibbutz of Menara offers a commanding yet sobering view of Israel’s northern frontier. During the recent conflict, nearly every home in Menara sustained direct hits, yet the spirit of the community never broke. As you stand on this strategic ridge, you'll gain a firsthand understanding of the immense challenges faced by residents living under constant threat, and witness the inspiring efforts to rebuild, recover, and reclaim a sense of normalcy.
Kibbutz Misgav Am

one hour

Experience Misgav Am, Israel’s northernmost kibbutz overlooking Lebanon, where the recent war turned this peaceful community into a critical frontline outpost. Stand at the lookout used by residents and IDF forces to monitor Hezbollah rocket launches, drone threats, and movements across the border. Learn how life here was upended during months of fighting and how Misgav Am continues to play a vital role in Israel’s northern defence strategy.
Stop 6

2 h 30 min

At the very tip of Israel’s map lies Metula, a picturesque town turned frontline stronghold. Severely impacted by rocket fire and infiltration threats during the recent war, Metula today embodies the struggle between fear and fortitude. Your visit includes a stop at the iconic Dado Lookout, offering sweeping views into southern Lebanon and the shifting dynamics of this tense border region. As you drive along the border fence, and engage in heartfelt conversations with local residents, you’ll witness a community committed not just to survival, but to rebuilding life, tourism, and hope.
