We hiked down into the Baloue Balaa gorge as it is known locally. It was quite a tough descent so I took a reverse zip line on the ascent out of the Baatara Gorge in Lebanon. Pretty scary.
It is a natural wonder and well known for it's waterfall in the spring melt of the winter snow in the mountains. It's near Tannourine high up in the mountains.
The locals call it Baloue Balaa and as you will hear. I found it tricky to pronounce correctly.
When we visited in the summer there was no waterfall of course but it did allow us to see the extent of the cave network which has been carved out by water erosion over millions of years.
The path to get down into the gorge is very steep and full of loose rubble and can be quite tricky underfoot.
I slipped a couple of times on the way down and was very happy to see a reverse zip line that I could use to get back out of there.
It's a long time since I rappelled in any direction. Scary as it was it was better than trying to climb back up.
The gorge has remained in pretty good condition because it is so hard to access and you would have to be quite an experienced mountain climber if you wanted to delve deep into the cave system.
We had a great day exploring the accessible areas of the caves and will definitely go back when the waterfall is flowing.
