Description
Located 110 km south of Tel-Aviv in the north-west Negev, Eshkol National Park is home to the first permanent disc golf course in the Middle East. A mix of wide open fairways, short ace runs, and technical holes littered with obstacles. The park is shared with picnickers, backpackers, cyclists, birdwatchers, campers, and other outdoor enthusiasts, not to mention many species of plants and animals. Please respect their right to enjoy this beautiful space and respect the park itself. Use sturdy hiking shoes because there are some long and sharp thorns. Also don clothing to protect yourself from the thorns, sun and in the summer ticks. For those staying at the campgrounds overnight there is a practice basket. You can rent a mattress and a tent. Bring your sleeping bag and food. There is a kiosk but it isn't open on weekdays. Parking Lot: (34.489868164051,31.308602288111) The course is accesible by public transportation. Bus # 35 runs several times a day from Beersheba and has a stop on main road opposite the park. The tee posts have the correct hole # but the baskets have wrong numbers on them [there are correct small numbers on the poles]. The rest of the details on the tee posts are generally wrong. Being fixed.
