Ski & Snowboard areas

Resort
Located about seven kilometers northeast of Baskinta, the tiny and quiet resort of Qanat Bakish is known for its high-quality snow. The resort is ideal for beginners and families with small children. Prices for a ski-pass are 10 USD during weekdays and 18 USD over the weekend (10 USD for half a day).

Transportation
For a taxi from Beirut to Qanat Bakish, expect to pay around 75,000 LBP. The easiest way to reach Qanat Bakish by car from Beirut is via Faraya and Faqra. After passing Faraya, after about 3 kilometers, take a sharp left toward Faqra. Continue until you reach a large roundabout where you go right toward Faqra Resort. From there, keep straight toward Qanat Bakish. Duration: about 1.5 hrs.

Accommodation
Although slightly outdated, the Snow Land Hotel *** offers clean rooms, suites, duplexes and dorms, and provides good access to the slopes. There is a restaurant and a large outdoor swimming pool. Classes and equipment are available at the hotel.
