Hiking, Cognac & Wine Tasting - Qabb Elias Hike & Wine Tasting - Bekaa Valley

  • Qabb Elias Hike and Wine Tasting

    Join us for a scenic hike in the beautiful town of Qabb Elias, located in the heart of the Bekaa Valley, just 15 kilometers from Zahle. This charming village is rich in history and surrounded by stunning landscapes.

    Our hike will be an easy, 8-kilometer trail that takes us through picturesque paths, including the famous Nabatean Tomb, also known as Haydara or the Temple of the Sun.

    We’ll also explore the ruins of an ancient Roman guard tower, later rebuilt during the Crusader era, and hear fascinating stories about the region’s rich past.
    After the hike, we’ll visit Chateau Heritage for an exquisite wine tasting experience.

    The winery’s owners, longtime friends of Vamos Todos, will guide us through the winery and share the history of their village. Enjoy high-quality wines in a picturesque setting.

    Following the wine tasting, we’ll head straight to Domaine de Chouchane to indulge in a traditional Lebanese lunch. Surrounded by lush gardens and ancient trees, this historical site offers a peaceful escape, nourished by the waters of Qabb Elias.

    Note:
    For those who prefer not to hike, you can relax at Domaine de Chouchane and take a leisurely walk in its beautiful gardens.

    Don’t miss this perfect blend of nature, history, and local culture in the heart of the Bekaa Valley!
