Hike the Holy Valley

$110 / Per person

Book This Tour

This isn’t just a hike. It’s a journey through one of Lebanon’s most sacred landscapes.
The Qadisha Valley has been a place of refuge and devotion for centuries, where monks carved prayers into rock, and hermits lived in silence and faith.

We’ll spend the day tracing their footsteps along forested paths, stone staircases, and hidden chapels built into cliffs. You’ll hear birds, water, and nothing else.
At the end, we’ll sit down for a well-earned late lunch at a simple spot with mountain flavors.

This is a day for letting nature do the talking.
