Summer means another reason to revel in the onslaught of outdoor activities available here. From SUP yoga to wall climbing with the whole family, here are five alfresco activities to do now
1. IClimb in Park HaYarkon
Park HaYarkon, the most walkable park in Tel Aviv, just got a new climbing park. From beginner to pro, there are walls for every level, all placed in an open outdoor space facing the sky. For the little ones, they have a kids’ wall area, too. When you’re done, bring rollerblades and check out the rollerblade rink nearby, or enjoy the kids’ bungee jump activities right next door.
