Tamar Regional Council

Tamar Regional Council lies along the Dead Sea in Israel’s Southern District, where the Judaean Desert drops toward the lake’s intensely saline southern basin. Its broad, sparsely settled territory follows the eastern edge of the Negev and the Dead Sea rift, a dramatic fault-lined depression far below sea level. Masada National Park, home to the mountaintop fortress built by Herod the Great, is one of the area’s defining historical sites and a UNESCO World Heritage property. Routes through the council connect Dead Sea resort settlements with desert roads leading south into the Arava.
