Down the fall, many families and groups gather on Saturdays and Sundays for picnics...and enjoy the beautifully green area. Hiking is the major leisure activity, you can walk down the hill through the biggest pine forest in the middle east to the amazing village of Bkassine and back! The hiking there is always enjoyable and refreshing....
