boat slammed into the ferry’s raft that Rabbi Berel Baumgarten’s

Ascentof
Safed is designed to be a place for relaxation, reflection, interaction,
and spiritual exploration, where you can grow and learn in your own
way, at your own pace, in an open atmosphere. You can experience a
wide range of learning, volunteer, creative, recreation and other
opportunities at Ascent as well as in the Old City of Tzfat.
We can
help you create a personalized study plan, you can join one of our
weekend or weekday retreats, or you can come to relax and attend study
and meditation sessions at your leisure, while staying in our great
hostel with its spectacular views.
In these dark and difficult times of exile, when holiness is hidden,
all of our efforts at serving G-d and fulfilling the commandments
need be done with tremendous self-sacrifice and great exertion to
overcome many obstacles.
