Majdal Shams is a small village huddled against the slopes of Mount Hermon, situated astride the ceasefire line between Israel's Golan Heights and Syria, Israel's sole ski slopes are situated above, lending the village a uniquely alpine atmosphere.

Almost all of Majdal's 9,000 residents adhere to the relatively obscure and secretive offshoot of Islam known as Druze; persecuted over the centuries, they sought refuge in the mountains.
