Beirut Adventure Day: Zipline, Flying Bike, Skywalk & Highest Swing
Spend a day out of Beirut tackling ziplines, a flying bicycle, the skywalk and the Middle East’s highest swing. This packed group outing pairs short, guided activities with mountain views and a relaxed lunch at a local restaurant.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive ready for heights
Most elements use harnesses and platforms—if you’re uneasy with exposed drops, mention it to staff so they can help you progress at your pace.
Footwear matters
Choose sturdy closed-toe shoes with grip for rappel and walking between stations.
Hydrate and snack
Bring a water bottle and small snacks—lunch break is long but activities are energetic and spread out.
Protect from sun and wind
Bring a light wind layer and sun protection; ridgelines can be both windy and exposed.

Conservation Note
Stick to marked paths, avoid disturbing vegetation, and pack out all trash; operators typically use centralized facilities to minimize erosion and habitat disturbance.
The Mount Lebanon slopes have long supported terrace agriculture and seasonal mountain communities; modern adventure facilities reuse historic access roads and viewpoints.
