The park extends between the neighborhoods of Ramat Shlomo and Shuafat to the north and Givat Hamivtar, Ramat Eshkol, and Sanhedriya to the south, and has an area of approx. 600 dunams.

The rehabilitation and development of the park includes the adjustment of the streambed, establishment of channels and mini-dams to carry rainwater along the course, planting of orchard trees, and establishment of leisure corners for visitors. The park is intended for bike riders and pedestrians and cannot be crossed by vehicle. Shaded corners with picnic tables and drinking facilities are scattered across the park.
Along the streambed the remnants of an ancient road, hewn caves, and water pits have been preserved, together with burial caves from the Second Temple period and the remnants of a cemetery from the same period. The terraces in the area show that the sides of the stream were farmed in ancient times.
The park serves as a habitat for Israeli deer and other animals, including foxes, partridges, and the common kestrel.
