The reserve, established in 1972, contains archaeological evidence of human settlements dating back to prehistoric periods in the Galilee region.

Traditional agricultural practices, including ancient olive groves and terraced hillsides, reflect the long-standing connection between local communities and the land.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails throughout the reserve, with the main entrance located near Safed and clear signage marking different route options.
