Strange people are those who hike. Trekkers, ramblers, call them what you like
All are under Her charm, under Nature spell, marveling at things as small as a nutshell
All share one passion, all stroll the mountain track. To them, Lebanon opens its heart; so does Liban Trek

Level 6 for the trails lovers
Jabal Tartej is part of the massif between Douma and Laqlouq. It can be rightly described as a geological freak.
It is dotted with thousands of sinkholes, looking like a giant egg carton constituting a maze of trails winding their way thru.
Our destination, “Qattîne al-Oûl”, is a breathtaking rocky site situated, at 1800m, very near the massif ridges.
There’s a classical way to get there but we have chosen a different approach, following one of those rare wild footpaths.
The hike starts at altitude 1100m and requires about 2½ hours of steady uphill to reach the site.
A good stop before resuming the hiking along the ridges until “Sikket al-Châm” old caravan trail coming from Douma.
Following it down for a while, a fork leads to “Fighri” mountain dominating Douma ending at “Ain al-Faouqa” spring, 1500m.
Total duration: 6h. Cumulative uphill: 1000m.
Level 3
The hike starts at altitude 1300m. It will be divided into 2 parts.
A good footpath leads to the summit “Qornet Okfor”, 1440m, with great view over Douma and continues near the ridges.
Arriving at the “Jnaynât” pass, 1280m, it follows a beautiful path until it meets the LMT side trail of “Sikket al-Châm”.
It forks here to join the road linking Douma to Jabal Fighri. End of Part1.
Transfer to Fighri, 3km.
Discover Fighri, hiking. Cave tomb, orchards ………… ending at “Ain al-Faouqa” spring.
Return to Beirut, 75km, via Bchealeh millenary olive trees, Tartej and Amchît.
