Mount Bental. Golan Heights, Israël. 2018
‘Mount Bental (Arabic: جبل بنطل‎, جبل الغرام / ALA-LC: Jabal al-Gharam / “Mountain of Lust” “Jabal Bental”; Hebrew: הר בנטל‎, Har Bental, “Mount Bental”) is a dormant volcano in the North-Eastern part of the Golan Heights, It extends to an elevation of 1,171 Meters above sea level. The mountain sits at the top of a car trail where families can stop and buy local Druze treats and food and eat at the Coffee Anan restaurant. It is a pun on the former UN secretary’s name, as Anan means cloud in Hebrew and the restaurant is on the peak of the mountain. On the mountain, there are 2 trails. One above ground and one under. The underground trail is an old IDF bunker which tells the story of the Yom Kippur war using Wall art. At the end of both trails there is an UN Observation post.’ Bron: Wikipedia.
