Zahrani River

The Zahrani River (Arabic: ) flows across southern Lebanon. It may be found south of Sidon. Zahrani () is the adjective form of the noun Zahran (), which in Arabic means "bloom" or "blossoming." The majority of Jabal Rihane and Nabatiyeh is irrigated by this river. It is one of the most significant rivers in the Jabal Rihane region. Its mouth is located north of the (longer) Litani River's mouth.

This river is crossed by the Zahrani Bridge. During Australian soldiers' operations in Lebanon, the Zahrani River was one of numerous that meandered through high wadis and cut the coastal route, posing substantial impediments. The Vichy French had built defenses along the Zahrani, as they had along the most of these river barriers.

The Zahrani River has a fairly fast-flowing water, so tourists need to pay attention to their travel gear carefully. Coming to this place, you will admire the clear blue sky with the sunshine. The bare trees in winter create a very poetic scene.
