Itinerary description

on a rainy saint joseph day we decided to adventure under the rain to hike and visit st joseph jrebta monastery, we parked in smar jbeil square not far from the citadel, and we started walking inside the town between old houses, the pass was clear , after that we went down to the valley and here the trail for some part was hidden but still is not hard to find, after walking inside the valley we went up to visit the monastery of st joseph jrebta and the shrine of st rafqa , after that we went back down and followed the valley on the way we visited a small spring in the name of st john maroun, after that we started climbing up to smar jbeil, the climb is very steep and the trail isnt clear at some point, after the climb we went back in the town, u can visit the citadel in the beginning or the end but we skipped since we know it and it was raining.
nice hike yet the climb is difficult and not very clear.
