Kibbutz Lotan

TIME : 2016/2/19 3:37:51

Embracing an ecological vision known in Hebrew as tikun 'olam (repairing the world), this kibbutz is known for its sincere and long-demonstrated commitment to sustainability and cooperative action. Visitors can take a guided daily tour at 9.30am (20NIS), spot wildlife in the kibbutz's nature and bird reserve, discover the therapeutic delight of watsu (water shiatsu) in the kibbutz's heated pool, or sign up for a one-week 'eco-experience', four- to seven-week 'green apprenticeship' or short permaculture workshop at the ecology education center.

Regional bus 20 from Eilat stops at the kibbutz, and Egged buses to/from Tel Aviv stop on Hwy 90, nearby.
