HaYarkon Park Full Length
The full length of Park HaYarkon along the Yarkon River — Tel Aviv's largest park, walked from Rokach Boulevard to the river mouth.
HaYarkon is Tel Aviv's Central Park — 350 hectares of lawn, mature ficus, and river-edge walking. The path is separated from cyclists, continuously benched, and beside water for most of its length.
Start at Rokach Boulevard, walk west along the north bank, cross at the pedestrian bridge, and finish at the river mouth. Level throughout.

Let the rhythm carry the thinking away.
Restorative · a pace the vagus nerve can rest in
Breathe in for 4 steps, out for 5. Keep the exhale a little longer than the inhale — that is the whole practice.
Slow down until the count softens. Sit on the next bench for a full minute. Presence is the goal — the map will wait.
Car-free access mapping for this route is still in progress. Check the transit note above for guidance.
