From its sources the Dan, Hatzbani, and Banias streams, the Jordan River flows through the Hulah Valley and the Sea of Galilee via the Jordan Valley, spilling into its end, the Dead Sea. The northern part of the Jordan Valley is lush and fertile with citrus and mango groves, orchards, and fishponds. The southern end of the valley becomes increasingly barren until it reaches the Judean desert, the Negev.
