Contextual Overview
19 Some men from Jericho went to Elisha and said, "As you know, sir, this is a fine city, but the water is bad and causes miscarriages." 20 "Put some salt in a new bowl and bring it to me," he ordered. They brought it to him, 21 and he went to the spring, threw the salt in the water, and said, "This is what the Lord says: ‘I make this water pure, and it will not cause any more deaths or miscarriages.'" 22 And that water has been pure ever since, just as Elisha said it would be. 23 Elisha left Jericho to go to Bethel, and on the way some boys came out of a town and made fun of him. "Get out of here, baldy!" they shouted. 24 Elisha turned around, glared at them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord . Then two she-bears came out of the woods and tore forty-two of the boys to pieces. 25 Elisha went on to Mount Carmel and later returned to Samaria.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he went from thence to Mount Carmel,.... Where Elijah used to frequent, and where also there might be a school of the prophets; this, according to Bunting a, was fifty six miles from Bethel:
and from thence he returned to Samaria; the capital of the kingdom of Israel; there to bear his testimony against idolatry, to reprove for it, and reclaim from it; this, as the same writer says b, was thirty two miles from Carmel.
a Travels, &c. p. 206. b Ibid.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Carmel - Where Elisha held gatherings for religious purposes 2 Kings 4:23-25 during one period of his life, if he did not actually reside there.
