Trip 422: Advanced Level Hiking from Mazra3et Shouf to Mokhtara


We at the Footprints Nature Club always work towards improving our services to our members. And in order to meet the needs of some hikers who always want to do hiking trips of hard and advanced levels, we will always try to organize trips that we will call:

Footprints Extreme Trips

 

One of the best hiking trips in this lovely weather with the Footprints Nature Club this Sunday 18 March 2018 will be on a trail in Shouf Region that we make sure to do every Spring as its beauty is really undescribable, will be:

Advanced Level Hiking from Mazra3et El-Shouf to Wadi El-Mokhtara

(Shouf Biosphere Reserve)

Part of the trail is in the zone of the Shouf Biosphere Reserve.

The trail is so beautiful that we make sure to open it for various levels, especially that we will walk near the Barouk River. We won't say more, enjoy the photos on our website to know what we are talking about...

We will start our walk from the village of Mazra3et El-Shouf, and head down to the valley thru a historic road before starting our walk in the valley.

The levels of the walk will be of Hard Level (7 to 8/10). It will be around 10 KMs. It shall take around 5 hours. Part of the trail is considered an advanced level since it will have some technical paths.

Note that we usually don't cancel our trip if it is raining. We just wear our waterproof stuff to enjoy walking under the rain...

من أجمل رحلاتنا في فصل الربيع لهذا الأحد 18 آذار 2018 ستكون في واحدة من اجمل المناطق في الشوف وتحديداً:

مشي في الطبيعة في وادي المختارة

رحلتنا ستكون بالقرب من نهر الباروك وتحديداً من منطقة وادي المختارة والتي تقع في جزء منها ضمن نطاق محمية ارز الشوف.

لمعرفة مدى جمال المنطقة، فقط استمتعوا ببعض الصور الرائعة على الموقع.

رحلتنا ستبدأ من بلدة مزرعة الشوف الرائعة لنتوجه نزولاً عبر درب قديم الى النهر ثم يبدأ مسيرنا داخل الوادي.

المستوى العام للرحلة سيكون مستوى صعب: (7 الى 8\10) مسافة 10 كلم ووقت حوالي 5 ساعات. المشي سيكون في بعض الاحيان في مسارات صعبة جداً.

في حال كان الطقس ماطراً، عادة لا نلغي الرحلة. وللإستمتاع بالمشي تحت المطر، الرجاء إحضار الجاكيت والبنطلون العازل للماء.
