An Israeli tourism company is marketing a hike to the peak of Mount Hermon in Syria, which was recently taken over by the IDF. Despite the area being declared a closed military zone, the company is planning the hike for May 31. The trek is being marketed as an opportunity to climb the new peak of the Israeli Hermon and be part of history. The hike is expected to be between 12 and 18 kilometers long and cost NIS 200 ($55) for a full day, including transportation. The IDF has stated that the area is closed and there are no current plans to open it to Israeli civilians.
