The Campus Context

Derech Etz Chaim is located in the central Yerushalayim neighborhood of Har Nof. Har Nof is a full-service neighborhood with all the amenities and is within close distance to the central bus station with easy access to downtown Yerushalayim. Most of the Rebbeim and their families live in the neighborhood.
The Yeshiva building backs on to the Jerusalem Forest with beautiful views from the Beis Medrash,
dining room and almost every dorm room. There is a workout room, as well as a large terrace facing the forest, with area for Talmidim to relax during their down time. The Jerusalem Forest provides beautiful jogging and hiking paths readily accessible right out the back of the Yeshiva building.
The Yeshiva has access to local public basketball courts and rents indoor courts several times a week for the Talmidim.
