History

With its 1047 meters (3435 ft) it is one of the highest mountains in Israel and is located about 1 kilometer south of Beit Jann. It is close to the Druze shrine of Baha' ad-Din, probably dedicated to the founding Druze leader of this name.

The mountain is a popular place for paragliding in part because of the landscape visible from there. On a clear day you can see the Gilboa Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea from it.

Climate

Har HaAri has a Mediterranean climate with hot summers and cold, damp and sometimes snowy winters. Its altitude makes it vulnerable to strong winds at any time of the year.
