Dear Lebanese Outdoor Adventurers (LOA), Join us this Sunday for an exciting trail in Laqlouq & Akoura highlands, “The Howling Wolf”
HIKE DESCRIPTION: Located in the Jbeil district, Laqlouq & Akoura are unique for their raw, beautiful nature and rich vegetation.
The hike will start at an altitude of 2000 meters above sea level. We will take a dirt road up to the highest point of the trail, where we will enjoy the landscape scenery and the amazing breeze. The track will then lead us to a cross atop the cliff, from which we will enjoy a breathtaking view of Akoura village and the lakes.
