DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT:

========================   

 

The visit will begin from the Cave Fortress of Niha, which is called Cave of Tyron in Frankish, as for the name Niha, which means quiet and peaceful in Syriac. It is carved into the rock of a cliff overlooking the entire plain of Bisri and Awwaly river. Emir Fakhreddine found refuge in the fortress with his family before his execution in 1635.

 

Then participants will go to the Nabi Ayoub site (the Prophet’s job) where popular tradition says as a result of his illness, the Prophet’s job emigrated from Houran with his wife and settled on a mountaintop in Niha where he recovered. Later on, we will head to the guest house in Maasser Al-Shouf to meet the reserve team.

 

Lunch will be in the village in a beautiful garden facing the guest house.

HIKING LEVEL. 1 to 3 for easy, 4 to 6 for intermediate, 7 to 9 for strenuous

The hike will be divided into two levels:

Both Levels will start from the entrance of Maasser Al-Shouf cedar forest, walking along the cliff overlooking the entire plain of Shouf. You will see the oldest cedar tree aged 3000 years, and a beautiful tree Lamartine (or Sawma’a).

LEVEL 3 (trail of 1 hour approximately) will take the bus from there to the entrance of Arz Barouk.  You can take a lot of unforgettable pictures there. The scenery is great!

LEVEL 4 (about 8 km) will head to Arz Barouk (Crow Track). From Masief el Mir, you’ll descend another road (Hoopoe track) to the beautiful Artificial lake where you will meet level 3 under Khitiara Tree. You will have minimal time for rest.

 

Diversified? Yes! You will encounter a lot of things in this hike!

 

Protect yourself and others around you by knowing the facts and taking appropriate precautions:

Distancing from each other is a must.

Cover your nose and mouth with your face masks. To keep the mask on, while we on the bus.  

Clean your hands often by using hand gel or other.
