Together with the musical events, the festival also offers experience-filled activities - Mass Moonlight journeys along the channels of the Sodom River and the Pratzim River, followed by an artistic event, as well as unique musical shows held in the magical botanical garden at Kibbutz Ein Gedi.
Festival of Mountain Bikes Race
Every November, a two-day celebration of mountain bikes is held at the back and foot of the Sodom Mountain, under the name of the VOLVO Sodom Mountain Race, produced by the Tamar Regional Council, Dead Sea. The celebration includes international races as part of the International Cycling Union (UCI), where the finest local mountain bike cyclists compete against international competitors.
