Ein Nun is a natural chloride spring in northern Israel, one of the many springs that characterise the hydrology of Israel's limestone and basalt geology, providing natural mineral water resources that have supported human habitation since prehistoric times in the well-watered landscape of the Galilee and northern Jordan Valley. Israel's springs (ein in Hebrew) are embedded in the country's cultural and biblical geography — the Ein prefix appears throughout Israeli place names, reflecting the central role of natural freshwater springs in sustaining settlement in the semi-arid and Mediterranean landscape of the Levant. Ein Nun's chloride mineral character reflects the influence of ancient marine formations in Israel's geological substrate, where deep saline groundwater mingles with fresher limestone aquifer water to produce springs of varied mineral composition.

Insider tip — The 35°C waters of Ein Nun are especially appreciated for floating weightlessly and relaxing the muscles.
