June is considered the “Summer” season in the Lebanon. It is known to be sunny and cool temperatures. In Northern Lebanon it's usually fresh during the day, and moderate at night between 15c to 20c degrees. During the day temperature can reach 30c while at night temperature can drop to 15 degrees Celsius.

Bring well-made and durable all-weather hiking clothing suitable for layering. 

Merino wool is great (especially for underwear) for its quick-drying, anti-fungal, and anti-odor properties.

For reheating food, you will need Butaine & Propane Mix Gas Canister.

To find your way around, you must know how to read maps (which will be provided by the Organizer) and you can use handheld GPS or navigation app for phone. GPS files will be shared closer to event date.

For your safety, all participants must bring a small first aid kit.

We believe our participants love and cherish nature and all its beauty. We know you wouldn’t litter, so please bring a waste bag for your litter.

Littering on and around trails, checkpoints, and mountain lodges are forbidden. Litterers will be disqualified and banned from applying to any future HIGHLANDER events.

Currently dogs are not welcomed.
