We will meet in Antelias and head to Zeaitre, stopping for breakfast along the way.
Once in Zeatre, a short hike, around 1 hr will take you around to see the main landmarks of the village, the ruins and very old trees.
Then the workshop will start. It will be beneficial to each and every one of you. Make the best of it!

Niha Bekaa Hiking |
Niha Bekaa Hiking |

|

We’ve taken you to Niha Chouf, now it’s time to visit Niha Bekaa.
Niha, in the Bekaa valley, is a village known for its citadels dated back to the Roman Empire, some even further back to the Byzantine and Phoenician era. The citadels are grand, with an importance as big as Baalbeck’s.
The Roman emperor used to come from Baalbeck to spend summer in Niha.
The word ‘niha’ means a place for rest. So what better place for the emperor to go?
Niha is rich in vineyards and arak wineries. It had 23 small home wineries, 18 of which are still producing even though inconsistently.
It would be a great opportunity to hike in the area, discovering all its landmarks and seeing the wineries, the grotto, the water sources and the breathtaking views overlooking Bekaa valley.
The hike will be two levels: level 3 and level 6
LEVEL 3 will start with a visit to the Roman citadel. Then a tour around the small wineries and a visit to the grotto will be an interesting way to discover this beautiful village. The path will continue further until you reach the second citadel. Take as many photos as you can. Every detail is important! Lunch will be out in the open, under the shade of trees and the fresh air of Niha.
LEVEL 6 will start from the citadel in the village. Then they will head to the cross at the peak of the hill. The trail will continue along the side of the mountain until another hill called “Tallet el Deir” is reached. There, views with indescribable beauty will take your breath away. A visit to the old citadel will be an important stop before meeting level 3 for lunch.

Ehden forest (Horsh Ehden) is one of the most diversified ecosystem s of Lebanon. This picturesque natural reserve shows its beauty mostly in autumn, where colors are as diversified as the numerous kinds of trees.
In this hike, many levels are available:
LEVEL 3 starts near Nabaa Jouit, at the lowest entrance of the natural reserve. The hike breaks through a pine forest then slowly, broadleaved trees such as the rare wild apple, different kinds of deciduous and evergreen oaks, as well as the sumptuous maple with its fall yellow leaves. Then the forest becomes mixed with conifers including the majestic cedar and fir which takes of this forest as its most southern limit. The trail ends up at about 1750m in the middle of the cedar forest. This level is estimated to be achieved in 3 hours and a half at slow pace.
LEVEL 5 takes the same trail as level 3; however the hiking will be on a faster rhythm. This trail will continue to the top of the reserve to reach the hut of Btellaya (2000m).
