Djebel Bura

Djebel Bura (djebel meaning mountain in arabic), also nicknamed as the mountain of the monkeys, includes the biggest forest of the country. it is a magnificent scenery, allowing for several days of hiking, from one village to another, from one mountain top to another.


the road leading from Bajil up to Djebel Bura.
































views from the top of some of the Djebel Bura mountains.
















often the clouds would mistify the scenery even more.

































some of the villages on the very top of the mountains.





































the road to the top villages and mountains was blocked, as parts of the stone rocks fell down onto the road following the rain. instead of driving up by car, one had to climb up on foot... forget easy trecks up the hill, think more like climbing up on all 4...
















the terrasses looking like they had been drawn onto the landscape.






































































contemplating the green of the terrasses.
