There is actually 2 ways two get there , it's basically by the metal gates on the floor in the forest (that means coming from tzfas ) instead of going straight u can make a right 1 min after there is a left lane merging that's were it is .
To be honest it's sounds kind of crazy since its only its 1 spot and very hard to find without being shown the first time , if u do go good luck putting ur car on nutural the whole time , mabey u should have some in the back of it so it should not go flying back !!! Lol

The same thing exists on the exit from the 38 to the 1 enroute from bet shemesh to J'lem. (Or somewhere in that intersection)

moish · « **Reply #3 on:** April 25, 2013, 09:00:17 PM »

Yes it's in the forest 1/2 way to Amuka , do you know we're the sign in the forest reads one cigerate could burn the whole place down ?

Nice video. I've been there as well. You gotta take דרך יער to amuka. I think it's officially a ramp to a garbage dump

Nope, last time I went to Amuka I couldn't remember where it was.

Am I the only one who found it uninteresting and boring?

the whole thing takes approximately 3 minutes, not enough time to get someone bored.

I found it really cool!

Drove in neutral, spilled some water, and let a stroller roll up the hill

Huh? Plants?

It's a road near Amuka that due to optical illusions or something, looks like a fairly steep hill upwards. In reality, it's not (I guess the surrounding hills throw you off...) and therefore things roll uphill. If you put your car in neutral (like in the video) it will roll uphill. If you spill water on the ground, it will roll uphill etc.

Every time I've been there there were a few other cars there at the same time checking it out, driving uphill in neutral etc.
