Baatara Waterfall, Aaqoura Lakes & Batroun Small-Group Tour

Lebanon's mountains hide natural wonders that most visitors never find. This small-group tour from Beirut takes you deep into the northern Lebanese highlands to two of the country's most breathtaking natural landscapes — before descending to the Phoenician coast for lunch in one of Lebanon's most charming seaside towns. The centrepiece of the day is the Baatara Gorge Waterfall near Tannourine — a 255-metre waterfall that plunges through three successive natural limestone bridges, creating a scene so extraordinary it looks staged. Before Baatara, the tour stops at the mountain lakes of Aaqoura for photos and a gentle walk along the lakeshore. The day ends in Batroun — a Phoenician town founded over 3,000 years ago — for a relaxed lunch by the Mediterranean. Best experienced in spring when snowmelt makes the falls most powerful.
