Itinerary description
Bentaael reserve in edde byblos region. Very nice and serious hike. The trails are well organized with clear signs for all the branches. We did a complete loop around the reserve which is the max distance one can walk. There is a small part on the road but not dangerous, as barely two cars had passed. The area is nice, and not too hot as the walk is almost between the trees. Better to take the road in the last part of the loop as the main entrance might be closed. On the way there are many caves worth visiting

Very difficult
The area and the reserve are amazing, however the trails are poorly marked and you can loose the trail very easily. Furthermore there is a stretch of about 4 km on the asphalt road that is not indicated anywhere. But we succeeded to figure it out. Though our trail showed about 9 km but in fact we did more that 15 km due to the ambiguity of the signs. Overall it was difficult but we have enjoyed it
