Chouwen Lake Hike & Swim | Jabal Moussa Reserve Day Trip
5.0 · 1 Reviews
Overview
Lace up your hiking shoes and get ready for one of the best easy hikes in Lebanon. This small-group day trip from Beirut takes you into the Jabal Moussa UNESCO Biosphere Reserve — one of the most ecologically rich and scenically dramatic protected landscapes in the Middle East — for a 3-hour guided hike to Chouwen Lake, a stunning high-altitude mountain lake tucked inside the reserve that most Lebanon visitors never find. The hike is easy, the trail is marked, and the reward at the end is a turquoise mountain lake surrounded by cedar-forested peaks. In summer, swimming in the lake is possible — making this one of the best hike-and-swim days you can do from Beirut.
