Itinerary description

Small Hike to the Kfarhelda Waterfall (Bsatin el Ossi) and the canals on Nahr El Joz which are used for hydropower generation in Kaftoun.
The hike has some steep areas and somewhat difficult slopes and if you're hiking in the summer like I did, it will be hot and humid.
(Probably difficult for beginners)
