The Sculpture Trail In The President's Forest

The Sculpture Trail winds its way through Tzora forest for a distance of around 10 kilometers. KKL-JNF supplied the artists, both veterans and new immigrants, with large chunks of rock, which they transformed into sculptures that were placed along the path, creating a collection of environmental sculpture.

Some of the works blend into the existing landscape, while others emphasize the regions historic past. One work, for example, portrays the heroism of Samson, while another consists of spikes of rock arranged in the shape of a comb perhaps a reference to the comb wielded by Delilah the Philistine, who was the cause of Samson's downfall.
