Things to Do in Sde Boker: Local Guide

Israel's remote Negev Desert kibbutz was chosen by David Ben-Gurion as his retirement home and burial site, and today the surrounding Zin Valley nature reserve offers some of the Middle East's most dramatic crater hiking. The Avdat UNESCO Nabataean city ruins and Ein Avdat canyon swimming hole are within easy reach.
