“We formed  “ Rahal Falsteen (Palestine Travelers )”  group in 2014 after we met randomly at a nature trip in Wadi al-Quf near Hebron.

Our group currently has nine members, and we accept new members only after we ensure that they follow the group rules which include taking care of the environment and being devoted to  volunteer work.

Among our members are a former prisoner,  a merchant, a craftsman, a researcher, a blacksmith  and others. For example, in the climbing sport we have two climbing coaches who received  training from the French Alpine Clubs.
