Tall Asur, also known as Mount Asur, is the highest point in the West Bank at 1,016 meters above sea level. Located near the village of Silwad, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and on clear days, the Mediterranean Sea. Hiking to the summit is a popular activity, with trails passing through terraced fields and rocky terrain. The peak is also home to a small shrine and remnants of ancient structures, adding historical interest to the outdoor adventure.
