Regional Trains
The main line of רכבת ישראל (Israel Railways), the national railway system, links Tel Aviv with Nahariya, a city north of Haifa. From Tel Aviv, take a train to Jerusalem, Haifa, Akko, and many other destinations throughout Israel. The train to Haifa, for example, takes about an hour; the trip to Jerusalem takes about an hour and 40 minutes. Please note that the system does not serve the West Bank, Gaza, Eilat, or southern Israel.
