Givat ha-Radar

Located at an elevation of 880 meters, Givat ha-Radar features an observation tower designed by architects Aryeh Sharon and Eldad Sharon.

During the 1948 War of Independence, the Harel Brigade attempted to capture this strategic hill, which was later secured during the 1967 Six Day War.

The memorial site contains military vehicles and tanks from the Jerusalem battles, preserving the memory of the Harel Brigade operations.

Visitors can access a two-kilometer trail that connects the summit to Maale HaHamisha Forest and ends at the Kiryat Anavim Military Cemetery.

The hill contains multiple military artifacts at the base of its observation tower, offering panoramic views across the Jerusalem mountains.
