Horn of the Carmel (Keren HaCarmel) Forest Recreation Areas

The Horn of the Carmel Forest is located north of the Nahal Yokneam road (Route 70), on the border of Ramat Menashe. KKL-JNF has prepared a few recreation areas in the forest.
 
Sha'ar HaCarmel Recreation Area - a large recreation area near the Elyakim Interchange that has picnic tables, some of which are wheelchair-accessible, drinking water and restrooms.
 
Hurvat Hermesh (Hermesh Ruins) Recreation Area - about 800 m east of the Sha’ar HaCarmel recreation area, this is a large area with picnic tables, some of which are wheelchair-accessible. A round, group-picnic table that can seat at least 15 people creates a particularly beautiful seating area. Another seating area is called the Pine Cone Corner – three picnic tables shaded by three huge stone pines.
