General Information
?Who are we
In the midst of orange groves, planted by early settlers and adjacent to an orange packing plant from the time of the Turkish rule in Israel, 'Shvil Hatapuzim' was born in 1997.
Borrowing from Nahum Gutman’s book 'Shvil Klipot Hatapuzim' the founders created a park born out of love for nature and children. The activities and attractions are hand-crafted by the builders with special attention to preserving the beauty of nature and its environment.
'Shvil Hatapuzim' is an ongoing project, constantly evolving creatively. We invite you to enjoy this adventure where the principle of respect for nature and for the people within it dominates.
?Where are we
The park is situated half way between Haifa and Tel-Aviv, near Kibbutz Gan Shmuel and 5 kilometers east of the Caesaria interchange on Route #2.
Opening hours
Shvil Hatapuzim is open to the public Saturdays, holidays, and most of school vacations, from 10:00 to 17:00.
In July the park will be open only on Saturdays.
In August we'll be open every day from 10:00 to 17:00 (10:00-16:00 on Friday)
