Trail description

This Danniyeh section of the Lebanon Mountain Trail links Kfar Bebnine with Bqaa Safrine, following irrigation canals, orchards, footpaths and some paved road. After a steep early climb to the Saoma cisterns the going eases past the Nabaa al Sukar spring and unusual rock formations before a walkway leads into Bqaa Safrine, close to the old town of Sir ed Danniyeh. It is about 14 km with some 650 m of ascent and a similar descent. Parts are hard to reach in winter because of snow.
