This cache brings you to a special village in the Golan Heights. It is a unique village due to the population being entirely Alawite, a religious minority pre-dominantly based in Syria.
I read about restaurants and good, Alawite food but the first time I came (Friday and soon after the end of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah) all restaurants were closed (end of February 2025). The second time (Saturday, beginning of June 2025, when I hid the cache) the restaurants were open and we had good food. They do not have a menu but rather give you a huge selection of food with various things to try. It was a fair price and the food was very tasty.
The village architecture is quite distinct from other architecture I have seen in the area and the roundabouts are pretty artistic. It is worth doing a short stroll through the village and see it.
I use the English Wikipedia as a reference for the description if you are interested in the history of the village.
Ghajar (Arabic: غجر, Hebrew: ע'ג'ר or רג'ר), also Rhadjar, is an Alawite-Arab village on the Hasbani River, on the border between Lebanon and the Israeli-occupied portion of the Golan Heights. The name of the village means "gypsy" in Arabic. As of 2022, it had a population of 2,806, most of whom consider themselves Syrian but have Israeli ID cards. The Blue Line divides Ghajar between Lebanon and the Golan Heights, although Israel has occupied the entire village since 2006. Israel considers it a part of its Northern District, in which its southern part is organized as a local council in the Golan Subdistrict.
ABOUT THE CACHE:
The cache is a simple, magnetic key holder, recycled from an archived cache which I found and took with me to clean the geo-trash.
Please use stealth and use hints and spoiler pictures, then it should be an easy find.
The cache is located in the Peace Park in the village center and the views around the village are interesting for someone interested in the history of the area. I marked one possible paid parking in the village where you also have a view to Lebanon and the UN post down in the valley.
