Descripción del itinerario
This hike was a hike designed for families of colleagues who worked with me at SABIS. The trail was fairly easy allowing for toddlers to participate. the hike started from the Virgin Mary church in Moukhtara and went down to the Barouk river where we kept a flat trail except for the last 500 meters of the hike where hikers have to go uphill in order to reach the bus.
The weather was a bit hot (temperature were in mid 30s degrees Celsius) but the hikers were protected by the trees along the banks of the Barouk river. The trail covered: Moukhtara, Baddi Bridge, Abou Matar Bridge, Baddi Watermill, Nabaa (spring) Mershid Spring, cottage with a rest area, the Birkit Arous (Bride's pond *), and Shaykh Hasan bridge.
* legend and old people tell the story of the Bride's pond as follows: about 500+ years there was a bride riding her mare to her bridegroom town at midnight. When the caravan reached the pond, the mare slipped and the bride fell into the pond and to her death.

Nice trail! Many thanks Zahi! We crossed the second (big) bridge and continued on from there. If you want to cut the trial shorter (total about 3 K) just follow the trail across the bridge.

Great trail (even without a flowing river in August). Did it with four kids aged 9-11. Some parts of it were not very easy to navigate for them so keep that in mind if you are a family.
And take lots of water!
Did this trail today, beautiful!
We expected an easier walk, one person in our group was a bit older and not so good on her feet anymore.
We tried to go all the way, then cut back over the big bridge and followed the trail back, as it was getting too difficult and steep for some of our group.
Unfortunately the water often smelled like sewage.
Landscape is beautiful!
Happy to learn that you enjoyed the trail.
I was there last week, and the guard told us that due to the lack of electricity, the sewage plant didn't work. Therefore the smell.
They already planned to install solar panels.
