Did you know that bustling Tel Aviv is also home to beautiful natural sites like the Yarkon River?

The source of the Yarkon River is at Yarkon National Park, not far from Petah Tikva. It flows west through Gush Dan and Tel Aviv’s Yarkon Park into the Mediterranean Sea.

Yarkon probably comes from the Hebrew word “Yarok”, which means green. Though not sure whether the intention was to the greenish water or the plants and trees around it.

Along the river, you can find green spaces and various attractions, mostly sports-related. There are also bicycle and running lanes
