The Dead sea, the most salty body of water on the planet Earth and the lowest point on the planet, is shared between Israel and Jordan.

From Jerusalem

From the city center or the bus station, take buses 25, 4 or 4A to get to the "French Hill junction". This junction is the spot to hitchike in the direction of Jericho and the Dead sea. The place is usually crowded with hitchikers, and drivers stop often. Most likely they will go only halfways, in which case you should ask to go down in the entry junction to their settlment, and continue hitchiking from the bus station. When reaching the Beit-HaArava junction, the road turn south and from there you can ask to get off in any location at the shore of the dead sea.
