    Soaring from a mountain top in Ghosta, the Jounieh bay and Lebanon will never look more beautiful.

    When you’re up in the sky, you’ll feel like a bird, human problems forgotten. You’ll eventually land on a beautiful strip in the center of Jounieh Bay, which is considered one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

    However, not all pilots paragliding in Jounieh are certified. So, for more assurance, please ask for certificates before flying.

    For more information, check out Paragliding Club Thermique on their website or contact them on this number +961 3 933 359.

    Five waterfalls along the Assi river will get the adrenaline rushing through your body. The ride lasts for about 2 hours, but not all of it is that intense.

    Besides getting a healthy dose of thrilling fear, you’ll get to enjoy the beautiful greenery as you’re coasting along the stream.

    The Assi river is located in the North of the Bekaa Valley, 3 hours away from Beirut. You can spend the night there as well since there are many camping sites around the river.

    A flyboard is similar to a jetpack but it uses water to thrust you upwards. It takes practice to be able to control it but once you do, the thrill you feel is worth it
