The setting is interesting. Thorny shrubs with some trees, and lots of ravines and bumps. Baskets are placed often on top of a mound with ravines on 2-4 sides depending on the hole. The lines are reasonable and distances moderate. The baskets are okay -- with 1-2 bent up.

There is no consistent signage. It seems that there are two sets of tees, but the basket numbers, the map, and the tee numbers do not match. The course is hard to find with almost no signs where to park, nor where hole 1 begins. No starting kiosk at all. There are no reliable arrows pointing to the next hole. The tee pads were often covered in brush, sand, rocks, or huge palm leaves cut off nearby trees. There seemed to be almost no maintenance. Israel needs to do better with its first permanent course. I enjoyed a "safari" round. Most of the holes I played were 250-400 feet, and all were reasonable par 3s. One hole was 500+ and I took a 5. And two holes I never found at all...

It's in Israel. Very cool to have a disc golf course in Israel and worth playing. I haven't tried the course at Kibbutz Lotan yet, so no comparison. The scenery is beautiful and the course is challenging.

Facilities available in the park and it is possible to borrow discs at the gate. The park was empty when I was there so there was no traffic at all. I was definitely the only one on the course.

Moderate elevation changes and multiple shots required to play around the trees and landscape.

The vegetation was very thick this time of year (end of February) and I really couldn't play alone without a spotter. Couldn't find the course on my own and definitely need the map to find the next hole. I never found hole 15.

If you're a disc golfer and you're in Israel... you have to do it. I rented a car from Tel Aviv just to come and golf.

Would like to have discs with a local imprint available to purchase in the shop.

Todah Rabah - big thanks to those who put the course together. It's a quality course worth playing.

Very challenging, course. You can tell a lot of love and care has gone into the design and maintenance. Tee pads were excellent. Awesome locals who will help you get around. Very unique playing experience. The red tees provide a nice playing experience if you're travelling with someone less experienced than yourself. Cool wildlife, unique terrain, and a hole where all you can really do is throw rollers - so much fun!

Some holes are crazy long with difficult to find your disc landing zones, so a spotter is recommended. Not always a con, but definitely an extra thing to worry about. The back 9 alone can really take it out of you if you're not prepared!

I can't recommend enough getting in touch with Yuval and Disc Golf Eshkol BEFORE you come here. https://www.facebook.com/discgolf.parkeshkol

varied terrain, amazing nature, very challenging at times, good signs, long shots , and some alternative tees making it easier for beginners

some thorns in the rough so wear closed shoes and long trousers, hard to know where the next hole is if you aren't with someone who knows the course.

designed and marked very well, great maps next to tee offs

Good variety of some long shots and some technical, normally you have the course to yourself, no passers by to interfere or watch out for most of the year (major exceptions are Jewish holidays but even then most of the holes are not visited). Blue and white tees for most holes.

The OBs (most of dirt paths beyond basket) are generally poorly defined ---- it is hard ground so it is hard to install stakes. Thorns & hot in summer. Some of the signage and tee signs aren't finalized (presently lying down in the correct place).

The course has been changed this year and is almost finished. All of the tees are now correctly marked (at least one of the blue/white tees). The correct numbers on the baskets are small decals on the poles (the big numbers are incorrect). The layout is available on Udisc for a set of 18 holes.
In summer it's essential to play early as possible (about 6:30 AM). The park has bungalos rented 100$ per room/ 6 ppl. Bring towel and sheets (only if you don't reserve the room in advance) and food. Camping also available with optional mattress rent. Easiest way to get to park by public transport is train to Be`er Sheva and bus 35 (both about 1/hr) and get off at Park Eshkol, or there is a bus to/from Jerusalem once a day. If you leave in car after closing time the gate might be locked and you will have to look for the guard. Lots of wildlife in park. Get your body looked over for ticks after playing.
Dogs must be on a lease and muzzled.
