📜 DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT:
===========================
This time we are going for a beautiful hike in the stunning 🍂🍁🍂 Ozer Forest at Kfardebian village.
The name Kfardebian originates from the Semitic language and perhaps descended from the Syriac, which gives it the meaning of “The Village of 🫎 Deer’s”. The history of the village goes way back to an era that is still obscure because of the absence of archeological and historical assets.
The 🏦 ruins of Faqra, the traditional Lebanese houses, the old and new ⛩ bridges, and the remaining mills in the Valley of the Cross are the best proofs of the importance of the village and its rich 🏺 historical originality.
🌿🥾 HIKING LEVELS: 1 to 3 for easy, 4 to 6 for intermediate, 7 to 9 for strenuous.
Our hike will be divided into 2 levels:
🏅 We will hike around 10 Km as level 4, for just 3,30 hours, will start at 💧 Nabeh El-Laban, it will lead us to a wonderful ⛩ old natural bridge of rocks carved by water millions of years ago and there you can take as many of 📷 photos as you desire then to the impressive remains of a 🏛 Roman temple and a citadel built on ancient foundations still dominate 🔭 the scene, giving a view over the astounding gorge. The second part of the trail at the Golden Ozer Forest is easy and open to a panoramic view. The protected forest contains chestnut, oak, Turkish oak, pine, 🌲 cedar and other tree species.
🥈 Level 5 (13 Km) Once we reach the old bridge of rocks, those who wants will continue Uphill and head towards 🛕 ‘’The Phoenician tower’’ overlooking the area, then downhill until we join the other group.
Diversified.? Yes! You will encounter a lot of things in this hike!
