Shemurat Ilanot, Nature reserve and arboretum in Central District, Israel.

The Ilanot National Arboretum extends across 130 dunams, featuring a network of trails through collections of trees and native plant species.

The site began in the 1950s as a research facility for tree acclimatization, testing 170 eucalyptus species and 750 ornamental trees for adaptation to Israeli conditions.

The eastern section includes a therapeutic community named 'Trees' that assists young adults aged 18-24, including new immigrants, in drug rehabilitation programs.

Visitors can access the arboretum daily from 8:00 until sunset through highway 4, with free parking and entrance available for all guests.

The reserve contains rare specimens of Eucalyptus rubida and Brachychiton australis, alongside seasonal displays of purple irises and Sharon tulips.
