Al Shouf Cedar Reserve - Ain Zhalta-Bmohray Cedar Forest
About
At around 1,200 m near the village of Ain Zhalta, the Ain Zhalta-Bmohray forest is the reserve's northern gateway and one of its gentlest for families, with shaded, mostly level paths among young and old cedars and a nearby cedar-ground campsite. It is a relaxed introduction to the Al Shouf Biosphere Reserve, part of the UNESCO-listed cedar landscape. Standard reserve entry fees and summer hours apply.
