Swimming @ Sa;ar waterfalls
Saar River flows on northern Golan Heights. It is best known for Saar Falls, near road #99, and is characterized by impressive flow after the rains.
The origin of the Saar river is near Majdal Shams. And Saar river is considered the geographical border between the Golan and Hermon.
There are two high waterfalls in this river: Resisim waterfall – about a kilometer east of the Friendship Bridge, and Saar Falls – west of the Saar Bridge adjacent to the 989 highway to Neve Ativ. The waterfalls are a result of a steep height drop (550 meters in 6 km).
Besides the two large waterfalls, there are several dozen more cascades and small waterfalls along the stream.
Naturally, the stream has a year-round water flow. But many years ago, the residents of the surrounding area started using the water. And since then, water has been flowing only when the flow rate exceeds the pumping rate (usually after heavy rain) or when water reservoirs are full, typically only in the second half of winter. At the peak of the rainy season, its flow may reach an impressive rate, and then many hikers visit the Saar Falls.
