Seyahat planı açıklaması

This is an exploratory hike; it started from Niha's town square next to the church. After a few hundred meters of the town's roads we hit an uphill steep slope for about 2 km with a 450+ elevation gain. The trail went downhill then through a series of down and uphill slopes to make it back to the cars. The trail went through beautiful Jurd (highlands) scenery passing by arid hills interjected by green patches of almond and cherry orchards. The trail also contained two Roman ruins sites and through a valley of beautiful La Piaz rock formation. The last 1+ km of the hike was through a newly "under construction" unfinished road that was steep, slippery, and dangerous; however, we all made it unscathed.
The break at the top of the mountain gave us an unfettered view of the Bekaa valley (silo of the Roman empire) and the quilt-like patches of earth colors.
The weather was hot for this time of the year; the high altitude did not help ease the heat.
I rate this hike as a difficult hike.

Roman Quarry

You find these quarries close to temples; it is amazing how the rocks are cut straight and in equal huge sizes.

Habiss Cliffs of Forzol

These cliffs contain many caves and there are signs that these cliffs had multistory buildings using woods for the floors; this is obvious because of the many holes that fit wood beams at different levels. See pics below. This site also contains an underground cave with many tiny rooms.

Right to Temple

At this point you have a choice of going straight to enter the La Piaz Rock valley or take right to go to the Roman Temple ruins. Not going to the valley will take off 2 km from the trail.
