The Litani River is an important water resource in southern Lebanon, stretching 174 km in length and providing an average annual flow of 920 million cubic meters. It rises in the Beqaa Valley and empties into the Mediterranean Sea north of Tyre, and its basin encompasses 2110 km2, making it the largest watershed in Lebanon. The river is named after the Ugaritic deity Ltn, a seven-headed sea serpent, and its course traverses diverse climates from coastal subtropical to dry continental.
