Nahal Akbara (נַחַל עַכְּבָּרָה) is a stream in the Upper Galilee, originating on the southern slopes of Mount Canaan at an altitude of approximately 850 meters above sea level, and ending at its confluence with Nahal Amud, near Highway 85. [1] [2]
The stream begins in a deep channel between the eastern neighborhoods of the city of Safed, then continues southward, crossing Highway 89 under a bridge. From there, the stream flows southward, passing by the village of Akbara, where it is joined by Nahal Rabbi Yannai, and flows at the foot of the Akbara Rock cliff until it meets Nahal Amud, just east of the Nahal Amud Junction. [1]
The name of the stream is derived from the ancient settlement of Akbara, which dates back to the Second Temple period and the Talmudic era, and whose name has been preserved in the nearby village. [1] [2]
Along the stream's course, there are several springs, including Ein Razim, Ein Hadas, Ein Yannai, and Ein Sela. [3]
