LMT Section 11: From El Aaqoura to Afqa

You can start walking on section 11 next to the info panel above the village. Most of the walk is along a dirt road, with the trail following the majestic cliffs to the east of the village and climbing up to a high altitude along the ridge line. When you pass by Ain el Aasafir spring, turn right to reach the top of the mountain range. After passing by Saydet Sehta shrine, you continue along the dirt road and then start walking downhill on a goat path towards a grove of the juniper trees. There you will reach another dirt road that goes winding through orchards and fields. Walk straight along the paved road and cross over the main el Mnaitra road, passing by “La Foret des Chenes”. Take the dirt road to reach Nabaa el Hosn spring from where you walk down the footpath into the “Juniper Forest”. Then take the dirt road that terminates near Takla church which is on the paved road. This section ends there or you can continue on towards Afqa on section 12.
