Why Miziara is one of North Lebanon's top flying sites

Miziara sits in the Zgharta District in northern Lebanon, elevated above the Koura plains and the Akkar coast. It's one of the most consistent wind sites in the country — a favourite among experienced paragliders — with wide, unobstructed launch areas and reliable thermals from late morning onwards.

For tandem passengers, Miziara offers a panoramic view of North Lebanon that most visitors never see: endless olive groves, the blue strip of the Mediterranean, distant mountain ridges, and the peaceful countryside of the Koura all visible from a single flight.
