What to discover on the way:

One of the most beautiful section of the LMT (Lebanon Moutain Trail) to my opinion, the tracks who goes from Aaquoura to Afqa is really pleasant and easy. You will enjoy stunning views on Nahr Ibrahim Valley (Adonis Valley) on the ridge of the mountain. As I said, the path is quiet easy to follow and not technical at all. Although It is around 20 km so you need to be in quiet good shape. The village of Aaqoura is famous for its 44 religious place so give it a stop to have a visit ! About Afqa, the village is famous for its waterfall who is also the source of Nahr Ibrahim river.
