    We are happy to invite you to a long-standing tradition in the Israel Scouts. Every Passover, 14-

    15 years old scouts from all over Israel are going to a 4 days journey from sea to sea, where they

    cross the country from the Mediterranean Sea to the Sea of Galilee.

    The trip will start with a grand opening ceremony on the Achziv beach and end on the last day at

    the lake shore. Each day the scouts will hike routes in the Upper Galilee.

    This trip is in a Rovers Format (every night in a different parking space, according to the direc-

    tion of walking).

    The theme of the trip is the love of the nature and cooperation while learning the Land of Israel

    through the legs.

    Host The hosts of the Sea to Sea trip are the Hebrew Scouts Movement in Israel and the internationalgroups will be accompanied by the international department.

    Dates of the trip: Because of the large numbers of scouts traveling the country in the same week -we will have 12 different Sea to Sea trips in 2014. each trip will be 4 days and all of them will be held between

    4-13.4.2014 - after registering you could choose the best date for you and we will find a host group for you. we

    recommend planning a longer trip in Israel and staying before or after the trip!

    Venue: The starting point will be in Tel-Aviv and a bus will take your group to the north of Israel

    (about 2-3 hours drive) to the beginning of the trip and the meeting with the hosting scout troop.
