Gan HaShlosha National Park (also called Sachne) is a national park in northern Israel near Beit She’an centered on natural warm spring pools and extensive grassy picnic grounds. The site is a popular recreational destination for swimming and day visits.

The park’s main attractions are the landscaped warm spring pools, which maintain comfortable temperatures year-round and are surrounded by lawns, shaded areas and facilities for visitors. The site also includes walking paths and displays about the local environment and regional history.

Gan HaShlosha is located in the Beit She’an valley area in Israel’s Northern District, at the margin of the Jordan Valley and within a short drive of regional towns.

• Warm spring pools: The park’s pools are fed by natural warm springs and are popular for bathing year-round; weekends and the summer season are the busiest times, so mornings are usually quieter.

What to See#

• Main spring pools: A series of landscaped warm spring pools fed by natural springs that remain popular for swimming year-round, with lawns and shaded picnic areas surrounding the pools.
• Picnic lawns and recreation areas: Grassy picnic lawns, children’s play areas and picnic facilities adjacent to the pools provide day-use recreation space for families and groups throughout the year.

• Visit Gan HaShlosha (Sachne) early on busy days to secure a shaded picnic spot and avoid the largest crowds around the warm spring pools; Israeli weekends and holidays fill the park quickly.
• Plan your visit together with nearby Beit She'an ruins - the two sites are close enough for a combined half‑day trip and make efficient use of travel time in the valley.
• Buy tickets or check opening hours in advance during peak season; the park has an entrance fee and changing‑room capacity can be limited when many families arrive mid‑day.
