Baatara Waterfalls Cave Bridge, Lebanon



The Baatara gorge waterfall  is a waterfall in the Tannourine, Lebanon. The waterfall drops 255 metres  into the Baatara Pothole, a cave of Jurassic limestone located on the Lebanon Mountain Trail. Discovered in 1952 by French bio-speleologist Henri Coiffait,  the waterfall and accompanying sinkhole were fully mapped in the 1980s by the Speleo club du Liban. The cave is also known as the "Cave of the Three Bridges."  Source
