Directions / Travel Info:   (under review)

From Beirut, drive towards Byblos and take the right exit at the intersection to access the highway that leads to Annaya or Ehmej. Once past Ehmej, continue towards the Laqlouq ski slopes that you can see on the highest peak overlooking the main road. From there, turn right at the Shangrilla Hotel and continue until you reach the ski lifts. Park and continue on foot on the dirt road (the ski lifts should be parallel on your left side). Walk approximately 300 m and you should arrive at the first climbing site.
