The impressive mountain peaks of Lebanon are a magnet for the lover of the outdoors. Those who are keen on cranking things up beyond a typical day trip, Aigle in Monot is the perfect shop for picking up that extra fleece layer, a raincoat that is guaranteed to keep you dry or a sturdy pair of walking boots. It’s not the biggest shop, but what’s on offer and the quality of knowledge from the staff makes it well worth a visit if you’re planning to head out of the city.
