Sannine is the 3rd highest summit in Lebanon rising at 2680 m above sea level! This summit took its name from San and Nine who were the gods of ancient people who lived in Baskinta before Christ. This well known area was rich with Cedar trees that covered it during the Phoenician era; Nowadays this mountain is well visited for its mild climate, wonderful summer and its marvelous view that allows you to see Cyprus island from the top. On the way to Sannine, we can find the Mausoleum of the famous philosopher Mikhael Nouaimi. As for Qanat Bakich, it is named after Backhaus the Romanian god of wine; it is situated down to right of Sannine and well known for its numerous water fountains and one of the oldest ski resorts in Lebanon, which is unfortunately not in service since the beginning of the Lebanese war in 1975. In both mountain ranges, we can find plenty of water springs that are threatened by potential real estate projects under study. Instagram @profnasr8
