TREK WAKAN-HADASH
Go there and contact
The trek can be made in either direction, Wakan to Hadash or Hadash to Wakan. Practical info: the trail is in the shade in the morning if you climb from Hadash and in the shade in the afternoon if you climb from Wakan. There are also two trails, the lower trail and the upper trail via Jabal Akhdar.
The upper trail (W25 then W24a) is the longer but more popular. If you start from Wakan, follow the tricolour markers in the village center. Take the stairs up to the top of the steps (when the markings split into 2, don't turn left), which is where the trek really begins. The route is well signposted, but requires a great deal of attention, as it is very steep and consists mainly of rolling rocks and stones. It can even be a little treacherous. At an altitude of around 2,200 m, the path swings over to the other side, offering an exceptional panorama of the Jabal Akhdar plateau. The trail then continues for some time on the plateau before leading to the Wadi Mistal side and the descent to Hadash.
The lower trail (W24b) also starts in the village of Wakan. Follow the tricolour markings, start climbing the stairs, but turn left through the farms (it's signposted). This trail is shorter, but very technical and also sometimes perilous. The section towards Hadash is very steep and difficult, with slippery rocks.
Never set off alone, start early in the morning and bring a first-aid kit and plenty of water.
