Snowshoeing - Hadath El Jebbeh Snowshoeing - Becharreh District

  • The first snow has arrived, bringing a fresh and hopefully peaceful vibe to Lebanon. It's the perfect time for a new adventure!

    Join us this beginning of December for a fun snowshoeing experience. Let’s embrace the snow beauty and enjoy a fresh start together!

    Hadath El Jebbeh is a picturesque northern village overlooking the Annoubine Valley and the Cedars of Tannourine. It serves as a summer resort and tourist destination.

    The village is home to a magnificent cedar forest, making it an ideal location for snowshoeing. The journey will commence from the main piazza, offering a moderate level of difficulty:

    We will traverse a pine forest and follow a short path leading to the cedar trees. We will see one of the most beautiful forests in Lebanon.

    We will then sit at a nice coffee shop to drink a hot drink in a picturesque setting near the cedars of Hadath El Jebbeh.

    Later on, we will have a nice walk to see the church and the historical square of Hadath El Jebbeh before heading back to Beirut.
