Borot Lotz (Lotz Cisterns) Trail

Published on November 7, 2026 • By

Located at an elevation of 1,000 meters in the high Negev mountains near the Egyptian border, Borot Lotz features 17 rock-hewn water reservoirs constructed in the Judean Monarchy period (circa 10th century BCE). Between February and April, snowmelt and winter rains ignite a kaleidoscope of blooming desert wildflowers, including wild tulips, anemones, and rare desert irises.
