In a breathtaking blend of nature, sport, and awareness, the group I Hike organized a special eco-sports event titled “Sunset on the Hima Trail in Baysour”, offering nature lovers a peaceful hiking experience along one of Baysour’s most scenic trails overlooking the Mediterranean Sea from the village’s highlands.
A Scenic Hike Leading to a Magical Sunset
The group set off in the afternoon on a gentle hike along the Hima Trail, which is part of Baysour’s growing network of eco-trails dedicated to nature preservation and community engagement. Participants enjoyed the beauty of Baysour’s lush landscapes and forests, making their way to an elevated viewpoint that offered a breathtaking panorama—where the sea meets the mountains of the Chouf under the warm colors of the setting sun.
Spreading Awareness on Nature and the Hima Concept
In addition to enjoying the scenic walk, participants learned about the importance of Hima areas and eco-trails in preserving natural resources and promoting eco-tourism as a sustainable development tool for rural areas.
The event emphasized how such trails help reconnect people with nature while encouraging local communities—especially youth—to play an active role in protecting the environment and embracing eco-friendly practices.
I Hike: Blending Sport, Leisure, and Environmental Awareness
The I Hike group reaffirmed its ongoing commitment to organizing activities that combine sport, leisure, and environmental awareness, based on the belief that sustainable development begins with individual and community responsibility toward nature.
The event concluded on a positive note, with calls to continue such initiatives that showcase the beauty of Lebanon’s natural landscapes, promote a culture of hiking, and foster a deeper connection with the environment in the pursuit of a more sustainable future.
