Mount Tzuba, Mountain and national park in Jerusalem Hills, Israel.

Mount Tzuba rises to 769 metres above sea level in the Jerusalem Hills, above Route 395 between the Eshtaol junction and Jerusalem. Its summit, Tel Tzuba, holds the remains of the Crusader fortress Belmont, built before 1169, including an octagonal outer wall with a gate, an inner wall, a church and a courtyard with water cisterns. The national park has no facilities or signs, and open pits and collapsing structures require caution.

On the summit of Tel Tzuba stand the remains of the Crusader fortress Belmont, built before 1169. Its outer wall formed an octagon with a glacis and a large gate, and inside were an inner wall with iron-grid gates and wooden doors, a church and a courtyard with cisterns. The Arab village of Tzuba occupied the site until 13 July 1948, when Harel Brigade troops captured it during Operation Danny.

The Arabic village of Tzuba stood on the summit until 13 July 1948, when the Harel Brigade of the Palmach took it during Operation Danny. Its stone houses and terraces remain among the ruins of the Crusader castle, and the hill's name preserves the village.

The mountain can be reached from the Harel interchange on Route 1, where marked signs lead to parking areas near Kibbutz Tzuba. Arriving early is wise, as parking can fill up quickly during peak times.

The spring of Ein Tzuba lies about 500 metres from the summit, reached through a narrow 40-metre rock-cut tunnel whose ceiling rises as it goes and ends in a stone chamber where the water rises. It feeds a shallow pool and, via a channel cut in the rock, a larger rock-cut reservoir. The tunnel is closed until further notice.
