Itinerary description

Beautiful loop in Dhour el Chweir. We parked next to the Dhour el shweir church where we started our hike. Follow the tracing to find the beginning of the dusty road (waypoint). The trail is mainly a dusty road with pine and oak trees. It is very easy to follow. You will have amazing sceneries on your way. We also passed through the small pedestrian roads of the village. The last 1.5 km are on asphalt road to go back to the cars and close the loop. No technical difficulties, adequate for all hikers levels. Suitable for trail running. Enjoy!!

    Très belle découverte avec de beaux panoramas. Sur le retour, nous avons écourté en évitant de visiter tous les sites religieux ce qui a raccourci la randonnée. Mais nous étions déjà bien satisfaits.
