Itinerary description
The last days of the fall are usually frosty and the weather tries to keep you indoors; today was not different but we set to walk the Kfardebian area.
Starting from the town's square next to the town's church, the trail took us down passing by an army checkpoint and then left to the apple orchards and some water springs. The trail went up to the Kfardebian ruins then up to hills surrounding the town then descended again to Faqra ruins - after passing the Faqra bridge and Al Mowasee - and on to the Ahlam resort and reserve area and back to our rides. The scenery was beautiful with the trees colors taking the full colors range of the rainbow.
The weather was cold in the early morning but warmed up later in the day with a clear and sunny skies.

Lost my way several times, especially on the way back because of high grass and unusual passages. My GPS was also a bit off. Going up can be very tiresome if you're not in good shape. But, overall a very nice to-do hike.
