Educational Tours in the Southern Nablus Region

Combatants for Peace's Tel Aviv - Nablus group runs monthly tours of the villages and settlements of the Southern Nablus region. In the tours we visit the Separation Barrier in Elkana, the Ariel area, and the illegal outposts land of the Eli/Shilo settlement block. We finish all tours meeting Palestinian activists of the movement in one of the villages in the region.

The tours are designated to provide knowledge of this area, in the very heart of the West Bank, between Nablus and Ramallah. Focus is put on the patterns of settlement, the confiscation of lands, and the establishment of illegal outposts and on the understanding of the political and economic factors that run the settlement project as well as their implications on the ground.

Tours depart on a monthly basis, on Fridays or Saturdays, at 8.30AM, from Arlosoroff train station, and last around 6 hours, including lunch in a Palestinian village. Transport from Jerusalem will be arranged upon demand.
