In addition to the beautiful hike paths in the moshav and around it, there are many places which are considered holy to different religions, such as Mount Meron, a holy place for Jews and Druze, with the graves of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai and his son Eleazar, and the grave of Nabi Sabalan. Each year on Lag BaOmer there is a celebration on the grave of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai.
The baptismal site Yardenit, a holy place for Christianity and other religions, is located at about a 30 minute drive from Amirim, at the south part of the Kinneret, at the spot where the Jordan River meets the Kinneret. According to tradition, this is the place where Jesus baptized John.
