Itinerary description

The Mazraat El Dahr loop is scenic trail that is part walking through forests of pine, olive trees, and oak; and part walking on the side of a rocky cliff overseeing the Bisri valley. The trail is fairly moderate that can be enjoyed by beginners or families that would like to be in nature. The trail is well marked with little chance of anyone veering off or getting lost.

This SRC group walked this trail; I and was more than happy to be their guide for a day. The Mzar restaurant, right in the middle of the trail, was open and trea gave hikers the opportunity to rest and grab a manoushi (thyme pie). The weather was very hot this time of the year which raised the difficulty of the trail to moderate to advanced.
I would recommend that this hike be done between Novemebr and mid April.
