The Maccabi Pool has two heated swimming pools and a fitness room. From Gan Ha'em subway station, walk south down HaNassi Ave, which becomes Bikurim St. Some of the large hotels, such as the Dan Carmel, also open their pools to nonresidents, with admission fees around ₪50 to NIS80.

Sportek
Joggers, footballers and frisbee throwers should head for the long strip of grassy parkland along the Yarkon River, otherwise known as the Sportek. It's most crowded in the afternoons and weekends.
The Sportek also features the Olympus Climbing Wall (www.kir.co.il; 42 Rokach Ave), which offers rock climbing lessons. Avoid overcrowded Saturdays, when schoolchildren take over the place.
Near the climbing wall is a skate park, basketball courts and trampolines. Ultimate Frisbee matches are held here at 16:45 every Friday and at 16:30 Saturday. North of the Sportek, across Namir Rd, the young and the young at heart will enjoy Mini Golf(www.minigolf.co.il).
To reach the Sportek…
