Ehmej to Laqlouq: a colorful autumn trail 🍂
Join us on Sunday 1 November for a colorful day on the trail, from the Ehmej forest to Laqlouq village.
Ehmej means “the hidden place”, and it lives up to its name: unspoiled forests, jagged peaks, wild orchards and junipers. Along the way, we’ll enjoy panoramic views of botanical beauties, the Ezer Forest and rolling green hills, with the scent of wild herbs and thyme in the air. The trail is charmingly diverse, with a new landscape around every turn. If you want a Sunday full of color and a little challenge, this one is for you.
