Zvulun Valley

Structural and Tectonic Formations

The Zevulun Valley, also called the Zvulun Valley (Hebrew: Emek Zvulun), is a fertile coastal territory in northern Israel, part of the Israeli coastal plain along Haifa Bay, about 14 kilometres long and up to 9 kilometres wide. Despite its name, the article notes it is not a valley in the traditional sense but a plain that continues a fault producing a lowland pathway from the Jordan River to Haifa Bay, the same fault system that also forms the Jezreel, Harod and Beit She'an valleys. It is bounded by the Naaman River to the north, Mount Carmel to the south, the Mediterranean Sea to the west and the Lower Galilee hills to the east.
