Itinerary description

We started our hike from the Yahchouch Camp site. There is small stairs next to the camp that lead to the trail. You can take a guided tour for 10000LL/person (recommended for big groups, so you don’t have to worry about the trail). The trail passes through 3 different waterfalls (check pictures). The big one is usually crowded (because you can get there without a big hike, by coming from the electricity station) go there early if you want to enjoy swimming there. The 2 others are less crowded because their access is limited to this trail.
Through this recorded trail, we headed a bit towards the electricity station, so if you don’t want to go there and continue directly to the waterfall, make sure you walk in the direction of the big waterfall (most distal point of the map).
At the end of the hike you can enjoy a cold beer or quick snack at Yahchouch Camp; a chill place to gather with an amazing view of the valley.
Always remember to keep our Lebanon clean! Enjoy hikers and #HikeWhileYouCan :)

    The trail is amazing. The fact that it was kept natural with less ropes and handles and wooden stairs made it an even better experience. each one of the waterfalls had its own special beauty. I won't describe them because I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise. All I'm going to say is KEEP CLIMBING!
