Do not assume that every product is available every day. Confirm opening, equipment, participant requirements, route, price and meeting point.

Dead Sea Bikes operates from Ovnat by advance booking. Confirm the exact bicycle, e-Rider or family pedal-kart product, route and participant requirements for your date.

Bike rental and guided rides

Self-guided rentals use a planned route and navigation support supplied for the ride. Guided outings are also advertised. Depending on the chosen route and current access, a ride may pass viewpoints, date plantations and areas where salt formations can be seen from an approved path.

The operator adjusts routes for ability, pace and available time. Ask whether the quoted duration includes fitting and instruction, and whether the surface suits each rider in your group.

Other rider activities

The business also advertises an electric standing rider and family pedal karts. These are different experiences from a bicycle tour and may use shorter routes. Confirm which product is operating, the minimum age or height, maximum load, supervision rules and whether children can ride independently.

Families and younger riders

The operator currently advertises children’s bicycles from age 7, with child seats or a trailer as possible options for younger children. Equipment fit matters more than age alone. Give the operator each child’s age and approximate size before booking so the correct arrangement can be confirmed.

What to bring

Closed shoes suitable for riding
Drinking water
Hat, sunscreen and sunglasses
Comfortable clothes suitable for the season
Identification and a charged phone for navigation when instructed

Ask which safety equipment is provided and whether you should bring anything specific for a child seat, trailer or electric rider.

Getting there

The activity starts in the Ovnat area on Route 90. The exact meeting point and route depend on the product booked. Use the instructions sent by the operator, and do not ride onto an unsigned shoreline track or toward sinkhole zones.

Heat, route and road safety

Dead Sea heat can make riding unsafe, especially around midday. Start only at the agreed time, carry enough water and follow route restrictions. A self-guided rental is not permission to leave the supplied route. Ask what happens if wind, heat, flooding or access restrictions make the planned outing unsuitable.

Nearby places

Ovnat lies on the northern Dead Sea corridor. A ride may fit with Qumran or Einot Tzukim, provided the booking time and current site hours work together.
