About Kinneret
Kinneret, also known as Moshavat Kinneret to distinguish it from the neighbouring settlement of Kvutzat Kinneret, is a moshava on the southwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee in Israel. Located in the north of the Jordan Valley, 6 kilometers south of Tiberias, it falls under the jurisdiction of Emek HaYarden Regional Council. The village sits at around 185 meters below sea level, and in 2024 it had a population of 670. Kinneret Farm, an experimental training farm, was founded at the same time as the moshava and adjacent to it, as a separate and autonomous project.
