Geting To Meron

[davidrotts63]

Yes but coming for Jerusalem the best train would be to the airport.

The only train from Navon.
My understanding is Navon=>TLV=>Tel Aviv=>Karmiel=>Miron.
Does that seem right?

No

Navon-TLV-HAIFA (any stop, though Kiryat Motzkin would be only one stop to Karmiel) then Karmiel.

Ok great, thanks.

They are planning on 10,000 people coming so I imagine there will be more then one bus from the trains. As they are expecting between 500-700 people per train.

I wonder what time the least amount of people will be going?

DDF DO on the train, anyone?

Sure. I'll be dressed in a pilot uniform.

How much does it cost?
I saw 54 shekal, but maybe you can buy a one day Mavar for 60 shekal for one day and save money

Depends how long and when you are going. The 60 ILS pass is almost always worth it when traveling this far

So it would be valid on train, bus around the country?
Where would you buy it?

[Der Deutsche Jude]

Is it possible to get to miron by train on lag baomer

Where is you starting point tlv or Jerusalem?

Jerusalem

Just curious.  Why do you insist on taking a train and not just a direct bus from Jlm?

Trains are a lot more comfortable.

+1;
Also I hoping the the shuttle from Train to Kever and back with less of hassle.

If you want to buy your Rav Kav unlimited daily plan you can do it here:

You can buy up to a 14 days in advance and should work all around the country.

Plus no traffic to worry about getting in and out of Jerusalem and also heading to Meron

Taking a risk that shuttle to/from train be a disaster.

Last year when I went to meron, was mad at myself for not driving, paid crazy amounts to take the bus round trip and went with at least 4 others, so X that by 4. More then enough for a car and gas.
 You park in the same lot as the busses and then take a bus to the kayver.
 That way you can come and go when ever you want, as well you can break up the 3 hr drive.

Wow was the train a smart call. Thanks to whoever first mentioned it (in the other thread IIRC), under 4 hours from Navon to the kever, and a perfectly comfortable ride.

[Boruch Parnes]

Train was solid!

When I used to take the bus from Jlm used to take about three hours and no transfers necessary.

The bus this year took most people 3 1/2 hours  for the extra half hr its for sure worth it to take the train

[a good yeshiva bachur]

You can’t really take the train back home late at night...
