Itinerary description

Namroud-Hafroun Complete Mountain Summits Trail

***Watch all my new adventures exclusively on my youtube channel😍 https://bit.ly/3v5bbei
Thanks for your support👍

This is a hike wanted to do from few months ago but was postponed many times for different reasons.
At end, spontaneously found no better than the last day of crazy 2020 on New Year😂 to climb this mountain and there was an additional bigger plan + these summits...but logistics of time and transportation didn't help.

This is considered an Experts Only Trail, although the distance/elevation gain is not much but the quality of it is different than normal trails as it consists of climbing deep into the Mountain, steeper ascents/descents, dangerous maneuvers like jumping between mountain rocks where there's a deep hole in between and open free fall to the valley on the sides...among other critical climbing positions..

This hike was done alone, starts by an ascent through a marked trail then you reach a wide open land where you'll leave the trail to start climbing into the Mountain Rocks where the beauty is unexplainable nor describable.

As most of my trails, it was the first hike discovering the area and since scrambling between mountain rocks to find a better path is harder than in open land trails, it took me more time/effort on maneuvers to find an open way than the hike itself needs, however at times there was no better option than the difficult dangerous path especially climbing to Namrood Summit.
Before here, I climbed to 2 Summits as seen in photos, the views and overall atmosphere from up there is simply amazing.
After both..I passed through Ice slippery path of descent then ascent before starting climbing/jumping on rocks to reach Namroud Summit.
Then go through the Mountain ridge path, and start a steep descent of rocks/stones/sand..mixture until you reach the valley, continue until you see the church facing you, take right hand shortly following a marked trail upward, leave the trail on Top and start turning to your left ascending to Hafroun Summit where the views are stunning.
From there I took steep direct slippery descent, be very careful here until you reach the road then you continue on clear path to Arz Ehmej lodges where the trail ends.

I advice to not do this trail alone, if I'm crazy, you shouldn't be the same😂

I'm experienced in Solo Hiking/Climbing such and more difficult trails, it's a personal choice and from another world of feelings running into the nerves during doing it alone, but not for everyone, and anything might happen with any person even an Expert.

Not responsible of anyone's life following my trail.

Feel free to DM me for any questions..
