    The Cedar of Gods in Bsharri is a breathtaking experience. Walking through the ancient forests filled with thousands of years old cedar trees was touching and mesmerizing. It created a magical atmosphere that feels otherworldly. I found myself in awe of the significance these trees hold. I can’t recommended this place enough! I will definitely be back and it’s must-visit for anyone travelling to Lebanon.

    A beautiful hike through the majestic Cedars that make Lebanon famous. The hike is not too intense, so even beginners can go slow and enjoy the forest. The only thing tainting the entire experience is the "corridor" of souvenir vendors you have to pass through. Every single shop will hassle you as you make your way to the entrance of the forest. You will be aggressively heckled and lured into shops. And then there's the way back, where once again you will have to walk through the same corridor. I understand that they are trying to make a living, but they make the experience unnecessarily stressful.

    Beautiful place worth a visit, well organised and the tracks are clean. The giant cedar trees are charming and the sculptures engraved on some of them are fascinating. You can easily park the car at the entrance and you can also visit the shops at the entrance for some refreshments or to buy souvenirs. The hike inside the place is easy and visitors from all ages can enjoy it without a problem. If it was warm weather, the temperature inside is definitely cooler. Definitely recommended.

    Magical Place, a must go-to destination for tourists and locals!!! 🌳🦌⛰️ The trail is very organized (ideal for hiking), free entrance (donations only). At the end of your trail you can enjoy the Creation and Exhibition by The Artist Rudy Rahme.

    Magical and an iconic historic place that represents Lebanon at the core. Those trees go back 5000 years if not more. The cedar trea on the flag represents strength and longevity as Lebanon experienced multiple civilizations that ruled that region. Lebanon is super rich in history, culture and many different ethnic groups.
