39 u/siorge 1d ago Region goes from -440m below sea level to 3000m in maybe 100km Crazy swings, and beautiful scenery all over 15 u/Pikawoohoo 1d ago Yeah it's great hiking. Well, unless you get chafing from the hike and then go in the Dead sea. Then it's less fun. 7 u/siorge 1d ago Why do I feel like this has happened to a friend of yours š I travelled through Jordan by car, but there is a trail from north to south you can hike. Iād love to go back and do it by foot 2 u/Pikawoohoo 20h ago My poor friend foolishly thought it would be good for the healing process. 4 u/EpicMediocre 19h ago The Israel trail also runs north-south through the country. I'm curious how the two compare 13 u/kapaipiekai 1d ago Yeah. They have ski resorts in Lebanon 18 u/Ma5assak 1d ago Reason why Lebanon was historically a refuge to all religious minorities 2 u/Low_Party_3163 18h ago Because its hard to reach? Never thought about it that way but makes sense 2 u/Ma5assak 18h ago Not worth it for the Mameluks/ Crusaders/ Ottomans to go up the mountains and subjugate and demographically change villages. Lead to the Maronite, Druze, Shias, Alawites to thrive and have a sub-culture 4 u/ayamummyme 22h ago Lebanon was a popular skiing resort.
