Pkiβin Youth Hostel, part of the Israel Youth Hostels chain, invites you to enjoy comfortable hosting at a great location and attractive prices.
The hostel is located in the Upper Galilee, in the heart of Pkiβin, a Druze village. Itβs known for beautiful green vistas and a lookout towards the Meron Mountain reserve. Alongside the wonderful landscape and the atmosphere of tranquility, you will also be able to enjoy:
A rich, varied breakfast typical of Druze cuisine, an automatic drinks machine, free Wi-Fi access. Our reception desk staff will also be happy to recommend treks and experiential activities nearby, such as guided tours of the village which include traditional Druze hosting for families, and kosher hosting that nonetheless provide a taste of the authentic Druze kitchen.
We offer spacious pleasant rooms suited to couples, families, groups and singles. All rooms overlook the Meron Mountain Reserve and come with air conditioning, shower and toilet, a fridge, TV, and coffee corner. We also offer lecture and training rooms for study days, conferences and workshops, equipped with advanced audiovisual equipment.
The jewel in the crown at Pkiβin is the archeological finds discovered while preparing the hostelβs access road in 1995. Israel Antiquities archeologists were called to the site and determined that the finds, from rock and clay vessels, metal objects, figurines, incense burners, and clay jugs, belong to the Chalcolithic period. βShvil Hazahavβ or The Golden Path is an interactive educational program held onsite and delves into the history of the Druze community. It includes an audiovisual presentation and a quiz suited to the whole family.
Join us in Pkiβin for the unique hosting experience which makes our hostels so special: our calm, cosy and pleasant atmosphere, staff who are attentive to all your needs, comfortable well-tended rooms, and personal recommendations for trips and treks.
