Amikam, Agricultural moshav in Alona Regional Council, Israel.

Located at an elevation of 82 meters, Amikam extends across rolling hills near Zichron Ya'akov with agricultural fields and fruit orchards surrounding the settlement.

Jewish refugees from Harbin, Manchuria, and Shanghai established Amikam in 1950 after escaping the Chinese Civil War, settling on former Sabbarin village lands.

The residents of Amikam maintain traditional agricultural practices, cultivating peaches, plums, nectarines, and loquats across their communal farmlands.

Visitors can access Amikam via Route 4 to Binyamina and Route 653 towards Givat Ada, with parking available at the moshav entrance.

A rare peach variety once cultivated in Amikam has archaeological significance, as its pit remains were discovered at the ancient fortress of Masada.
