Migdal Tsedek National Park in Rosh Ha‘Ayin

Interessant site. The park was just concluded 2 years ago. Impressionant views on surrounding area. A very beatiful building of anvient Cruzaders fortress and Otoman period. And the stone quarry. Very intresting. Not recommended in summer.

Great place for family visit, easy walk. The best time for it is winter and spring, when all around is green.

Very beautiful place, the park is big and has many walking trails.It is fully accessible for disabled people

Nice couple of hours waking around the castle and foot pathsGo see the movie in the castle about the place history

Historic...Basic Cafee, nice... They hosted Pais art festival...

Nicely reconstructed but there is still a lot of work, well arranged sorroundings.

This is where I am from, this is where my family used to live.Well take it back, and kick your butts

Great place for walking around the old fort. Best to visit in the spring and winter.

A beautiful place to visit. They did a lot of work to make the place nice. Beautiful old ruins. Refreshments can be bought and there are lots of hidden places to go through.

I would definitely say to come on a clear day, as the surrounding view is fantastic.

Great place to hang out, a bit of a bummer that it is not open until late so you can watch the sunset (not only in July and August)

Nice and clean... Really short trip but historical.

Migdal Tsedek National Park occupies a large area, there are many archeological and historical buildings.

Fascinating site, recently reopened. Its easily accessible from central Israel, on the outskirts of Rosh haAyin. We were lucky enough to get a guided tour of the site, explaining its long history. Hope to revisit at the end of the year, when the winter pools will fill up.

Great place with awesome view!Go with family or friends, its perfect do "disconnect" for a couple of hours.

The park us very well kept, very clean and fun to visit. But there is barely any shade, and during hot days there is nowhere to hide, other than a few single trees here or there, and the ancient tower itself. Views are absolutely beautiful, and its fun to wonder around the trails. The tower is very well kept and maintained. Parking spacr is well organized and huge. Very close to the central area if thats a plus for you. Well probably visit again when its not so hot outside.

The parking and the path leading to the site are great - but thats the only good thing about the place. The fortress is in terrible shape, there is nothing to see except the view from the windows and the place is overcrowded.

Amazing park, freshly renovated. Suitable for family with small children in spring, autumn and winter. There is almost no shade, so in the summer it might be a bit brutal. The small cafe and the convenience store inside the fortress was nice.

an old castle from the time of the outmans Era like 900 hundred years of age renovated like in the old time construction beautiful view from every angel regeneration of the old flora excellent place to visit and relax

Great place for nice and not warm days, the castle and the views are awesome. There arent many shade places around so it is recommended to visit in autumn to early spring time of the year and probably after a few rainy days so all the winter pools are full of water.Most of the place is accessible to a stroller or wheel chair, and having it close by makes it a very good place to come back and visit every year.Theres also a very nice route to a bike trip which is very recommended.

We really loved it, we came soon to avoid the crowd. We also walk about 1 hour in the park before going inside the forteress...

Migdal Tsedek is Majdal Yaba and what a history! From a 3000 BCE walled city to todays modern Israeli city of Rosh Ayin. I liked the remains of the Crusader fortress called Mirabel. Nice cafe and gift shop , plenty of parking, paying a small entrance fee. Great walking paths all around.

Nice place to spend a Saturday noon. Historical recovered castle with a beautiful view to Gush Dan (TLV and its suburbs), surrounded by green paths

Breathtaking views, beautiful restoration and stunning walking trails all around the park.Definitely worth the visit

Very accessible place, natural gem, highly recommended with kids

Beautiful trails where you can see ancient castles right near modern buildings. Bathrooms, cold drinking water, shady areas to sit.

Amazing place!We came here on a rainy day to see the fort and do a small round of walk.We were surprised to see the amount of historic forts on such a small land.The trails are beautifulEnjoyed it alot

A pretty national park with much history, flaura, old mines and views in the midst of the most populated part of the country. Plenty of parking. Has both walking and bicycling trails.On the Saturday we visited 3 different guided tours were offered. We took the hour and a half tour and were fortunate to have a very knowledgeable and pleasant guide, Moody Rabfogel, who brought out the best of the site.

Great park with easy trails. Amazing to contrast ancient ruins with the modern Tel Aviv metropolitan skyline visible in the distance

A new national park that just got opened few months ago. Renovation and preservation has not yet completed but even now its impressive and all the walking paths are completed and theres plenty to see and plenty to walk.If you get a chance for a guided tour - go for it, theres a lot of history to this place which you otherwise wont hear.Theres a kiosk and in the future there will be a a coffee shop or restaurant.Entry fee is not expensive and parking is a plenty.Very recommended!

Nicely renovated place with several good looks over the area. Some rooms are open and give an insight what was here hundreds of years ago.

Beautiful. And connects well with the Antipatros Fort Park "across the road". Not all the walks are open, but the walk around the Fort and the Fort itself were open. I would not drive there especially, but if Im in the area, its worth the hour or 2 there. Maybe when they are up and running and fully functional I would give a different review

A new official national park (with an entrance fee). When I visited I found that many parts of the site arent yet open to the public. Plenty of parking and a nice view from the top. Clean restrooms and a small gift shop. A worker told me that they will be opening in the future and cafe.

Still a bit of construction going on. Should be smashing when all the restoration is done. Its pretty now. The grounds around are very pleasant to walk around. No shade, though

Great place for early morning trip. great views.

The place is beautiful, not for midday in summer. The place is not yet developed to its potential. We enjoyed a very peaceful time.

Hoping to update this review once the park feels completely open. There is a beautiful fortress, but not enough information given about it (via brochure or signs), nor is it completely accessible. Its nice that at after the climb up to the fortress, there is a pleasant courtyard with a store and Cafe. Even the picnic tables seem to lack any shade (waiting for the newly planted trees to grow?). Not worth paying, but if you have the yearly pass and its not far away, its a nice and quick stop.

The impressive house of Migdal Tsedek had several owner over the years. Now its a natural park near residential area and a small quarry. The park is not complicated yet, and you cannot visit the second floor of the house.However the place definitely worth a visit, and include trails,pools and viewpoints. There are also a kiosk in the house and picnic tables.

plenty of trails to walk along and enjoy this recently opened national park. there is not yet a lot of shade, probaby will be in the future when trees grow

Nice visit. Get there early to avoid the heat. Apparently the park is brand new as to May 2021. Renovation is still going on. Many trees were planted, but are still young and shade is scarce. The main attractions are a palace on the hill top and a beautiful lake, but its forbidden to swim

A newly opened national park with an impressive Castel ruins on top of hill and walking/cycling routes around it. The walking routes are varied in length and all paved but still lack some shade. Some of the areas in the park containing future attractions havent been opened at the time of our visit.

A new national park in Israel. Really nice. Make sure to come early in the morning on a summer morning... It gets very hot.

As some of the other reviewers have commented, this place has a great potential but is not quite there yet. The park is brand new and well designed. The castle in the middle is still undergoing renovation and is mostly closed to the public. The trails around it are pleasant, though not spectacular. Other trails which will be ready in the future are already visible. Overall, this new park is definitely worth a visit, but it is likely to be much more interesting when the castle is open to visitors

Fantastic new park right next to Rosh Ha’Ayin. Everything is brand sparkling new. Lots of paved paths make it excellent for either a bike trip or taking a wheelchair or a stroller. Really fantastic views into Gush Dan and the whole coastal skyline. Highly recommended

It will be the great place, but only after they will finish all works. Now available only part of park. There no shade, so I would recommend to visit this park next winter. Youll have much greater experience than now.

Will be a very interesting place to visit once all the renovations will be finished.Very long and steep path to reach the fort as they only allow handicapped and elderly people to drive to the upper parking

Recently opened, there is still construction and renovation work going on. The site looks really nice, large parking , also on top of the hill . Several paved trails to and around the fortress. Suitable for picnics at the end. We had fun hanging out there for 2 hours.

Huge potential, yet not quite ready. Today there are great paved paths up the castle but all the surrounding sites are still under development. The castle itself is mostly renovated but still not too interesting - will be much better in a year or so, Im sure.

lovely place, nature and antiquities. Great view to Tel Aviv-Jaffa and Gush Dan.

Awesome place
