Along the Kinneret Trail, just about the only thing you won’t find “as advertised” is the “rock-beating surf” Lord Byron described as he imagined the defeat of Sennacherib’s terrifying army. But you will certainly behold the “quiet blueness” extolled by another poet, the beloved Israeli writer Rachel, who is buried along its shores. All this, and much, much more.
