Faraya Mzaar Kfardebian, Winter sports complex in Mount Lebanon, Lebanon.
Faraya Mzaar Kfardebian is a ski resort on Mount Lebanon with slopes at various elevations reaching up to about 2465 meters (8085 feet). The resort offers terrain for beginners, intermediate and advanced skiers across several dozen runs.
The area developed as a skiing destination in the 1930s and received mechanical ski lifts in the 1950s, which transformed it into a modern winter sports location. This infrastructure allowed the region to become a major winter recreation center.
Families and friends gather here during the cold months to enjoy time together on the slopes and in the lodges. The resort functions as a meeting place where people experience winter recreation in a social setting.
The location offers equipment rental, professional instruction, and various accommodation options from hotels to mountain lodges directly at the slopes. Visitors should prepare for quickly changing weather conditions and plan their visit during the winter months when snow is reliable.
Due to Lebanon's compact geography, visitors can ski in the morning and swim in the Mediterranean Sea the same afternoon. This opportunity to experience two completely different climate zones in a single day is a distinctive feature of the country's location.
