Har Senaim, Mountain summit in Golan Heights, Israel and Syria.

The peak of Har Senaim rises 1,194 meters above sea level, featuring ancient ruins and offering views across the surrounding volcanic plateau landscape.

Archaeological excavations at Har Senaim revealed a Roman temple with inscriptions mentioning Emperor Hadrian and Greek settlements dating back to antiquity.

The mountain's name translates to 'Mount of Squirrels' in Hebrew and 'Mountain of Sweetness' in Arabic, reflecting the multicultural heritage of this region.

Visitors need to check access permissions and bring adequate water supplies when exploring the mountain trails, as the area sits in a controlled border zone.

The archaeological site contains a temple altar carved directly into bedrock, with a relief depicting Helios and covering an area of 5,000 square meters.
