Golan Heights Festival: June Wine, Cherries & Adventure Guide

Great news for travelers planning a June visit to Israel – the Golan Heights is hosting an incredible month-long festival that’s perfect for international visitors! The “Land of Golan” festival transforms this stunning region into a hub of wine, culture, and outdoor adventures throughout June.

Here’s what you can expect: dozens of events including live concerts (don’t miss Aviv Geffen and Tuna performing), self-pick cherry orchards where you can harvest your own fruit, active wineries offering tastings, and family-friendly activities scattered across the region. Adventure seekers will love the Volcano Mountains Marathon, while culture enthusiasts can attend the international TEDx event at Mount Hermon’s summit.

The festival is perfectly timed with cherry season and ideal hiking weather in the Golan Heights. Most events are accessible from major cities like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem with day trips or short overnight stays. We recommend booking accommodations early, especially near Katzrin or the Mount Hermon area, as this festival attracts visitors from across Israel and beyond.

This is an authentic way to experience Israeli culture while exploring one of the country’s most scenic regions. Contact us for help planning your Golan Heights adventure during festival season!
