Ehden (اٍهدن in Arabic) is a mountainous town situated in the heart of the northern mountains of Lebanon and on the southwestern slopes of Makmal mountain and Kornet el Sawda, the highest peak of Lebanon. Its occupants are primarily the people of Zgharta as it is part of the Zgharta District.
The city sits at approximately 1500 m above sea level, and is 25 km from Zgharta, 110 km from Beirut (the country’s capital) and 30 km from Tripoli.
Ehden is a famous summering town and touristic center often called "the Bride of Massayef (summer mountain towns) of the North."
