LMT Section 3: From el Qemmamine to Kfar Bebnine
The trail in this section of the LMT is mostly made of footpaths along forested hillsides. It is accessible all year long, but you might not meet many people along the way, except in el Qemmamine at the start and Kfar Bebnine at the end of the section, this area being remote; it is very likely though that you find some shepherds on the way.

The dramatic Jehannem valleys (وادي جهنم) with its deep gorges and high peaks, oak, juniper and brutia pine forests are the main highlights. There's one permanent spring at the middle of the trail.

Walk from Ain el Qemmamine spring along the dirt road towards the pine forest and then start the climb on the footpath until you reach the cliff which overlooks the village. From there, take the footpath to the right towards the dirt road. Before you pass by a concrete water reservoir start climbing towards a juniper forest.

After the forest, continue until you reach a dirt road and walk along it for a short distance before leaving it on your left as you go towards Tell Chima plain. Continue on the cleared footpath toward Ouadi Sirri until you reach Nabaa Ras el Ain spring. Then walk along the water canal and start your climb towards Tallet Hankoufa hill with its abandoned ruined site. From this point, walk downhill along a cleared footpath until you reach the paved road to Kfar Bebnine village. At the info panel, you can either leave the village or continue on towards Bqaa Sefrine.
