Best place for mountain activities in Lebanon. You can ski, hike, mountain bike and camp there. Visited during all seasons and I have pictures from each. For the winter season you can go skiing, ski de randonnee, snowshoeing or just enjoying the view while having a drink, coffee or a quick bite at one if the shops there. Ski entrance price for this year is still not announced but it's around 25 to 30$ (so around 700 000 lbp) as many people are suggesting. (Used to be 40 000 lbp on weekdays and 75 000 lbp on weekends before the crisis) Ski rentals are between 10 and 15$. However, nothing is confirmed yet. UPDATE: They will be opening on the 26th and the prices will be: -Domaine du soleil: 25$ weekday - 40$ weekend -Domaine du soleil + refuge: 35$ weekday - 50$ weekend More than 20 ski slopes for all levels and safe to say the biggest ski resort in Lebanon. Also, you will find many options for off piste riding. PS: Unless you intend to use the lifts you can still go inside free of charge. For the spring and summer season, the hike all the way to the top is both challenging and fun! You can also rent ATVs or buggies and go for an offroad trip with some of the guides working there. Every now and then (and in all seasons), they allow people on their ziplines which is also a must but make sure to check if it's operating before heading up there.

Great slope for beginners and intermediates with families. The slope passes especially half day are great value for money. Yes it is not a huge resort but if you have a young family then this would be a great place for them to develop their skills. The down side is acommodation can be quite expensive. I reccommed looking on air bnb and taking accommodation on the intercontinental side and getting a snow taxi round to main slope. If staying in mountains it is advisable to stop on way up to grab groceries. Some of the off piste on this resort is lovely as no one seems to venture off the track. We are here late Feb and spring conditions and it is relaxed chilled ski with a hint of goggle tan. If you can the week days are much better than the busy weekend. Summary- Great for families Not much apres Pick accommodation wisely Pros Great for improving for beginners Cons Advanced skiers may get board quick

Nice hotel with very friendly staff although it needs some renovation. I recommend it especially if you're planning to ski the following day, you can have a very nice breakfast (open buffet)... They start serving it at 6h30 AM so you can eat and hit the slopes very early... Of course you should buy the ticket including "Refuge slope" or you won't be able to take the lifts from the hotel. In case you don't have your own skis/equipment with you, you can rent what you need from the shops at floor (-2). After skiing you can hangout in the lounge and enjoy a snack) drink near the chimney for example :) I also tried the Italian restaurant, the food was ok but the portions are very small and you will need to order several ones... The swimming pool is great with a stable temperature of 29°C all the time.... Amazing view with snow surrounding the windows :)

it was my first time to ski in Lebanon, for the ski equipement, don't get them at mzaar ski, it's very expensive, get them from the village, there are many stores... i absolutely loved it, ticket price is 35 000L.L in week days and 75 000 L.L in weekend, a map can help you to not get lost, good organization, clean... closing time: 3 pm the parking is horrible, if you come after 9 pm, the parking is full ( 6 000 L.L/ car ), wa had to park in a vip place because there wasn't any place ( you can negotiate the price, for valet or VIP services they try to put high price like 10 000L.L but you can negotiate to 5000 L.L)

I had a fantastic experience at Mzaar Ski Resort two years ago! The slopes were well maintained and offered a great variety for all skill levels. The scenery was breathtaking, with stunning views of the snow covered mountains. The food at the break booths and restaurants was absolutely delicious. Whether it was a quick snack or a full meal, everything was top notch and added to the overall enjoyment of the trip. It’s been two years since my visit, so I’m not sure if anything has changed, but based on my experience, I highly recommend Mzaar Ski Resort for anyone looking for a memorable skiing adventure in Lebanon!

Mzaar ski resort is beautiful and a great choice for all skill levels. It is exactly 1-hour away from Beirut! It's true you can go from sea-level to skiing in 1 hour. And you absolutely won't find a better ski resort in the Middle East. Get to the slopes early to beat the rush. Highly recommend to go middle of the week to enjoy the resort less crowded and for short lines for the ski lifts. "Junction" is a good start for most. Also very good idea to drive up in a 4x4 as the roads can get icy.
