Nahr Al-Assfour

Four Kafarhatians, thirsty for adventure, took the journey of crossing the "Assfour River" From the town of Kafarhata to the final destination "The Mediterranean Sea". Atef Sakr, Nicolas Choueiri, Gebran Esber and Vicky Sakr took the risk of walking in the dry river bed Knowing that could be some dangerous animals hiding in the valley beside the River edge. The trip was very treacherous but they managed to make it safe. Their comment About the scenery was: " It is a wonder in the heart of Kafarhata waiting for everyone to discover"!

Here are some exiting pictures from that trip provided by Gebran Esber (Click on the thumbnail to see a large size).

	A great view from above of Nahr Al-Assfour path between the rocks showing what thousands of year of water passage have done to these rocks!
	Beside some isolated pockets, Nahr Al-Assfour generally dries up in the summer. That’s why you see the great explorers - Nicolas, Atef and Gebran – standing in the middle of its crossing. You won’t see them there in the winter!
	No, it’s not a picture from the Grand Canyon! It’s another great scene of Nahr Al-Assfour path between huge carved rocks.
	…Climbing the huge rocks that Nahr Al-Assfour moved along the way during its thunderous days!
	Explorers are resting: Nicholas , Vicky and Atef and in the far deep end you may be able to see Christopher Columbus!
	A view from below: Who knew this great scenery can be seen in the valley just 3 Kilometers beneath Kafarhata.
	Gebran chose a wonderful place to rest. It looks like a great hideout for outlaws!
