Shaharut, Community settlement in Hevel Eilot Regional Council, Israel.
Shaharut stands at 544 meters above sea level on a mountain ridge, offering views across the Arabah valley, 40 kilometers north of Eilat.
The Jewish Agency for Israel established this settlement in 1985 as part of their development initiatives in the southern region of the country.
The settlement maintains traditions of collective living and community support, with residents participating in agricultural activities and local development programs.
The settlement remains unconnected to Israel's national water supply system, utilizing desalination methods for drinking and irrigation requirements.
Unlike other settlements in the Arabah region that occupy valley positions, Shaharut sits elevated on a mountain ridge above the surrounding terrain.
