Itinerary description

very nice hike, passing through 2 main attractions of faqra area that are the toman ruins and the natural bridge, with some parts following segments of the LMT.
we parked on faqra main road near the roman ruins, we started the hike and quickly entered the zone of faraya roman temple that we visited along the bizantine church ruins , its a very nice archeological site, we continued down the valley following the LMT signs, passing by a water fall , after that we left the LMT and continued down to the river that we crossed, from there we started a relatively steep ascent between plantations to reach the main dirt road under the faqra club, after we reached the main road we continued to reached the site of the natural bridge where we followed back a part of LMT signs, after descending after the bridge area the trail became relatively flat and easy back to the starting point
