50 km far from Beirut, covering two percent of the total area of Lebanon, lies the “Al-Chouf Cedar nature 
Reserve” consisting of three major forests which account for a quarter of the remaining cedar forests of 
Lebanon. 
In the reserve, 2000 year old trees can be found as well as various species of mountain birds and plants 
and mammals such as wolves and Lebanese jungle cats.

On Sunday the 30th of December, 2007, Blue Carrot Adventure Club organized a hiking trip in 
the “Arz El Barouk Reserve”.
