Nahal Hermon ({{lang-he|נחל חרמון}}) is a river in the Golan Heights. It is the easternmost of the three main northern tributaries of the Jordan River; together with the Dan River and the Snir Stream, it forms the Jordan River's upper catchment (UCJR).[3] The stream is part of the Nahal Hermon Nature Reserve.

Course

The main source of Nahal Hermon is the Banias spring, located at the southern base of the Hermon mountain range and contributing a discharge of 67·106 m3 annually. From there the stream flows south for nine kilometers before draining into the Dan River.[1][4] Along the way, it drains the Guvta Stream (right), the Sa'ar Stream (left), the Pera' Stream (left), and the Sion Stream (right), with a total drainage area of 158 km2. The total annual streamflow of Nahal Hermon comes to 106·106 m3.[3]

Wildlife

{{See also|Wildlife of Israel}}

The banks of the Hermon Stream abound in willow trees, oriental planes, silver-leaf poplars, Tabor oaks, Palestine oaks, Mt. Atlas mastics, terebinths, carobs, ferns, giant canes, and various vines.

The stream is home to a variety of fluvial fish, including longhead barbel, large-scale barbel, Damascus barbel, and tilapia. Living and roaming around the stream or in it are wild boars, Syrian rock hyrax, swamp cats, nutria, and Indian porcupines.[5]

Birds that frequent the vicinity of the stream include rock doves and Western rock nuthatch.[6]
