Mar Semaan / Kniset el Rab Hike with Lebanese Outdoor Adventures – LOA

Dear Lebanese Outdoor Adventurers (LOA), Join us this Sunday for a challenging trail to the Kniset El Rab, Mar Semaan mountain in Tannourine

Our adventure will start at the entrance to Tannourine village. We will take a footpath uphill to reach the peak of Mar Semaan mountain, at a height of 2372m, where the summit offers a breathtaking panorama of wide landscapes. We will visit “Kniset el Rab”, where we will have our lunch break before heading back to Harissa Village, where we will end the Hike. It is a must-do expedition, provided you are fit enough, given the length of the trail and the increase in elevation.
