Sunset Hike - Kfardebian Faraya Sunset Hike! - Keserwan District

  • Nothing could be better than watching the sunset from a very high hill where the new statue of St.Charbel stands.

    Faraya will be our destination where we will hike on a moderate level all together to reach the new 23 meters high statue of St. Charbel, inaugurated on 14 September 2017.

    We will start our hike in the Jurd of Kfardebian where beautiful sceneries can be seen. The hike will be a moderate one with some uphill.

    Once we reach the top, we will witness one of the most amazing views in the area. From one side we will see “Chabrouh” dam and on the other side we will watch the sun setting on the sea horizon, all under the shades of the huge “Chabrouh” cross and St. Charbel statue.

    Once the sunset ends, we will go to a campsite in Faqra where a traditional dinner will be prepared by locals along with a bonfire to warm up the night.
