Introduction

Hello again, my fellow readers and riders.

During the last months we have been talking here in a series of articles that spread the details of riding the different regions of Israel. The regions covered were:
  1. The Western Galilee
  2. The Upper Galilee
  3. The Golan Heights
  4. The Lower Galilee
  5. Jerusalem Heights and Jerusalem
  6. The Dead Sea
  7. Eilat, and getting there
  8. The return from Eilat to Tel Aviv

With this post we are going to conclude the series "Riding Israel", with some logistics details that would be required when planning a trip to Israel.

Riding Israel: The return from Eilat to Tel Aviv

9/6/2023

After crossing the country from Tel Aviv to the very North of it in Metula, and then South to Eilat, now it is time to take our last itinerary in the country, the one which will take us back from Eilat to Tel Aviv.

Thus, this is our last itinerary article - and I will write one more article after this one talking about logistics details.

Our journey will be only in part the same route that we used to get to Eilat. We will begin through Road 90 until we get to Kibbutz Lotan, where we will take a left to Road 40 to Mitzpe Ramon. From Neot Smadar to Mitzpe Ramon we will be at the same route that we took to the South, just in the opposite direction. After we arrive to Mitzpe Ramon, we will take a completely different path.

Riding Israel: Eilat and getting there

We have already covered many parts of Israel (read our previous articles for that), and we finished our last article at Ein Bokek at the Dead Sea.

Today we will continue moving South, in the direction of the Arava Desert and its capital, Eilat.

For regular tourists, travelling in cars, the most straightforward way to get to Eilat from Ein Bokek would be travelling straight down Road 90 until you get there. But this is a straight and boring road. Instead of travelling in the straight way, we are going to pick the beautiful and interesting way.

There are many things to see on the way to Eilat, but since they are not so close one to the other and we want to get to Eilat on a single day, we are going to divide them between our two trips, the trip to Eilat and then the trip back from Eilat to Tel Aviv. So be patient, and we will cover all the possible visit points in this area.

So this is the way we will do today:

The idea is to follow alternate routes to Road 90, finding interesting places to see, interesting roads to ride, and specially arriving to Eilat from the mountains, one of the most beautiful sceneries to see in Israel. Nevertheless, the initial kilometers in our trip will be through road 90, since this road is the road that goes along the red sea.
