A Million Steps - Discovering the Lebanon Mountain Trail >Order the Book

On April 1st, 2009, Lebanese mother of three, Hana El-Hibri, and five other hikers, set out on a month-long trek to walk the length of Lebanon. On their journey, they encountered torrential rivers, thunderous storms and blazing sunshine. They crossed deep gorges, massive snowfields and idyllic meadows. They came across goats, wild dogs and dozens of colorful local characters who treated them to the hospitality, cuisine and folklore of Lebanese mountains.

A Million Steps is the diary she kept of her 29 days walking the newly established Lebanon Mountain Trail. It is a story about one woman's journey of fulfillment, and of her companions, all of whom were passionate about conservation, heritage and Lebanon's endangered natural beauty. Hana's heartfelt words and Nobert Schillers's stunning images give us snapshots of a Lebanon that is rarely seen.
