Kfeir is a small village nestled 900 meters above sea level along the steep slopes of Mount Hermon in Lebanon.
The village enjoys mild summers of an average temperature of 25 C. However, the winters are much colder and the village receives heavy snow. Kfeir's high altitude allows fog to form above the hills even in summer, giving the village a mystical and spiritual scenery.
The inhabitants of Kfeir are Lebanese, both Christians and Druze, and they mainly cultivate olives, pines and other fruit trees.
