Gran Fondo Bike Ride - 13th December 13
Take part in the 2nd annual Gran Fondo cycle race on December 13th. Translating from Italian as "the big race", this is a challenging one day cycling event covering a distance of over 96.3 miles (155 km). Israel lends itself to this type of event, benefiting from a mild climate as well as a unique landscape. From high mountains in the north, a breathtaking desert in the South and historical locations across the country - the course promises to be not only challenging but breathtaking.

Miscellaneous facts
|
| |
| |
| |
Did you know? As the Dead Sea is located 400 metres below sea level, this results in the area having the highest oxygen density than anywhere else in the world. Along with the dry desert climate and mineral concentration in the atmosphere, the air becomes a natural healing spa. This often means that travellers who have illnesses feel a sense of relief from any pain they are experiencing.
