Mount Tabor, Sacred summit in Northern District, Israel.
Mount Tabor rises 530 meters above sea level, featuring limestone cliffs and natural terraces within the Lower Galilee mountain range.
The mountain served as a strategic fortification point during multiple periods, including installations built by Crusaders in the 12th century.
The mountain holds religious significance as a Christian pilgrimage site, with a Franciscan church constructed at its peak in 1924.
Visitors can reach the summit through several marked hiking trails that wind through the natural reserve, requiring approximately two hours to complete.
The summit presents views spanning from the Jordan Valley to the Mediterranean Sea, with distinct geological formations visible across the northern Israeli landscape.
