Eastern Slopes

This area extends from Jenin area in the north in the parallel to the western Ghor until reached the Dead Sea and continues to reach Hebron area in the south. The area about 1.5 million dunams characterized by its deep slope ranges between 700 m above sea level to 150 m below sea level. Annual rainfall is between 150-300 mm. It is called the Al-Quds Wilderness, as it is characterized by its semi-desert nature, and therefore it is mostly used as natural grazing areas for different types of livestock.
