Jabal Moussa Biosphere Reserve

Reviewed By AM42020

Jabal Moussa is an incredible place: a diverse biosphere reserve, a beautiful expanse in which one can clear one's mind and contemplate existence, an amazing outdoor gym, an al fresco museum of Lebanese history. And all of this a short drive from Beirut (even if it feels as if you have traveled light years away). It has really saved our family from going insane in these corona times, but would have been a welcome weekend retreat in any year. The staff is also incredible, picking you up if you want to hike from one entrance to another, offering helpful advice, and even video calls for the few times we got confused mid-trails (it is extremely well-signed and difficult to get lost!). There are trails for all levels, from the novice to the more advanced. We did all 15 of them and each one offered new surprises. I can't recommend this place enough.
