"In a country of 18 different religions, all represented in a power-sharing (Tannourine Cedars Nature Reserve)

"In a country of 18 different religions, all represented in a power-sharing Parliament, it’s hard not to admire Lebanon. “Humans have a reset switch,” says Abajy when I ask him how neighboring villages have been able to forgive the atrocities that they unleashed upon each other through the ’70s and ’80s. The LMT, and projects like it, has a place in helping that reset take hold.
The Lebanon Mountain Trail might be a way off from becoming the world-class mountain bike trail many seek, but the fact that it exists at all is a mighty achievement in itself. Lebanon is back on the map for the intrepid: the independent travelers, risk takers and us adventurers. The tourism switch has been flipped back on."
