Eshkol Reservoir (Ma’agar Eshkol) is a large water reservoir in the lower Galilee, part of Israel’s National Water Carrier system. While not a traditional tourist site, the reservoir and its surroundings have become a popular recreation area, with walking paths, birdwatching opportunities, and views of the Galilee hills. The reservoir illustrates Israel’s remarkable water engineering, connecting the Sea of Galilee to the national water grid.
