__NOTOC__{{Infobox Israeli Location|country = Israel|district = Southern District|map = <map lat='31.4' lng='35.3' zoom='9' view='3' country='Israel' height='350'/>|pop = |highways = 90}}The '''Dead seaSea''', the most salty body of water lowest point on the face of planet [[Earth]] and one the lowest point most saltiest bodies of water on the planet, is shared between [[Israel]] , [[Jordan]] and the [[West Bank]]. The Israeli and Palestinian side has only one road, Road 90, which continues south towards [[Eilat]] and [Jordan[Egypt]], and north towards [[Jerusalem]], [[Tel Aviv]] and northenr Israel ([[Beit She'an]], [[Tiberias]], Sea of Galille, [[Golan Heights]]etc).
==Hitchhiking out =From ==== To [[Jerusalem]]===Wait at any point on Highway 90 (preferably a bus station) head north to the [[Beit Ha'arava Junction]]. Get off at the [[Beit Ha'arava Junction]], and continue at the ''[[trempiada]]'' at the beginning of Highway 1 going west to [[Jerusalem]]. Having said that, most probably your ride will be already going to Jerusalem (most do) so there won't be any need to change rides at Beit Ha'Arava junction. If you do neet to change ride, from Beit HaArava junction it is best to wait for a ride that is going directly to Jerusalem without any stop, unless your goal is not actually to get to Jerusalem, but a town along the way, such as [[Ma'ale Adummim]], in which case there should be people headed there as well.
From === To [[Eilat]] and Taba (Egypt) ===Just stand on any point on the city center or road, on the bus stationheading south. Continue south till you reach [[Eilat]]. === To the [[The Golan Heights|Golan Heights]] ===Wait at any point on Highway 90 (preferably a bus station) head north to the [[Beit Ha'arava Junction]]. From the Beit Ha'arava Junction, head north on highway 90 until you reach the Tsemach Junction at the bottom of the [[Sea of Galilee|Kinneret]] (unless you found a ride that goes directly to northern Israel, take buses 25e.g. to [[Beit She'an]]). From there, 4 there is a [[trempiada]] up to the [[The Golan Heights|Golan]]. People either drive up to Highway 92 or 4A Highway 98 from there. Highway 98 goes right up to get the [[The Golan Heights|Golan]], and Highway 92 runs along the east coast of the Kinneret from where you can pick up Route 789 at the [[Kursi Junction]], or Highway 87 to the "French Hill junction"[[The Golan Heights|Golan]]. Route 789 connects to Highway 98 from where you can chose to either continue north or head south. This junction is Highway 87 also connects to 98, but a bit later, and it also turns west over the spot to hitchike in Kinneret or east through the direction center of the [[The Golan Heights|Golan]] until it picks up 98 at its end. == Hitching in ===== From [[JerichoJerusalem]] and ===Get to the Dead sea[[Jerusalem#French_Hill_junction|French hill junction]]. The place is usually crowded with hitchikershitchhikers, and drivers stop often. Most likely they will go only halfwayshalf ways, in which case you should ask to go down in the entry junction to their settlmentsettlement, and continue hitchiking hitchhiking from the bus station. :[[User:Halt,_Stop!_Reudnitz_kommt.|Craig]] found it easy to get a lift even from inside Jerusalem. A bus stop in front of the Hebrew University looked perfect to set off. Since recently you can get there hitchhiking from in front the Damascus gate (sounds strange, but worked numerous times: 10 mins, 5 mins). When reaching the Beit-HaArava junction, next to the border with [[Jordan]], the road turn south and from there you can ask to get off in any location at the shore of the dead seaDead Sea. See [[Jerusalem#East_to_the_Dead_Sea.2C_Northern_Israel|Jerusalem]] article for more details{{Cities Israel}} == Resources =={{nomadwiki}}
