Your Racing Options
Transportation to Eilat and from Naharia
Transportation to Eilat
Well, you wont believe it but the bus is your best option.
You will find buses leaving Tel Aviv or any other big city and in few hours you are there.
dont forget to order a ticket upfront
Half race - transportation from Modiin
planning to finish in Modiin? great!
we are glad to tell you that there is a train from there to any other train station but a bus is also good option
Full Race - Transportation from Naharia
Less than 10km from the finish line, you will find a train station that will take you to any other train station but you can also combine train to Tel Aviv and a Bus from Tel A
A flight to eilat?
yes! you can also do that but you are still fresh so few hours by bus is much cheaper
We tailored the route from Eilat to Rosh Ha'nikra not only because we thought that the route is better that way but also because we knew that sometimes its not that easy reaching to Eilat by Bus but when you'r still fresh, its an easy job but after passing the finish line in Rosh Ha'nikra and riding the Epilogue to Naharia (less than 10km) you just want to grab a train, relax on the comfortable chair and sleep from 2 hours, when your bike next to you
