Mitzpe Ramon, a town in the Negev desert of southern Israel. The name Ramon comes from the Arabic “Ruman” meaning Romans. It is situated on the northern ridge at an elevation of 860 meters (2,800 feet) overlooking a sizable erosion cirque known as the Ramon Crater.  The Ramon Crater, known as a makhtesh, is 38 km long, 6 km wide and 450 meters deep. Mitzpe Ramon experiences hot, dry summers and cold winters. There are moderate to strong winds all year long, caused by its location above the crater, which make Mitzpe Ramon feel much colder than it really is. Snowfall occurs on average once in a couple of years. There is growing interest in ecotourism, Jeep trekking (access to Nabatean ruins), mountain biking and hiking.
