Who to Call in Bekaa Kafra
Emergency numbers, the nearest hospital and the village channels a Bekaa Kafra household or visitor needs — with tappable numbers.
The numbers a household or a visitor in Bekaa Kafra actually needs. The emergency short codes work from any phone, anywhere in Lebanon — save them before you need them. The village has no hospital of its own, so serious care means Bsharri or Tripoli. Where a local number could not be verified, it has been left off rather than risk sending you to the wrong place.
Emergencies: 112, 125 or 140
For police call 112, for fire, rescue or a storm emergency call the Civil Defense on 125, and for an ambulance call the Lebanese Red Cross on 140. All are free national numbers that work from any phone.
In winter, the road can close
Bekaa Kafra sits at about 1,800 m and the one road up from Bsharri closes completely in storms. Before travelling in the cold months, check the road status (the village's Snow & the Road Up tool and the official channels it links), carry snow chains, and travel in daylight.
