Charoun or Sharoun (Arabic: شارون), is a Lebanese village located in the Aley District.

Charoun is one of the biggest villages in the Aley District, (10.5 square km), and wholly Druze.

[citation needed] The town receives heavy snow during the wintertime, which may reach a level higher than one metre high after particularly bad storms.

[citation needed] There are three major families in Charoun: Al Ahmadieh, El Sayegh and Al-Banna.

It's the hometown of many important persons in Lebanon: the journalist Nidal Al Ahmadieh, the composer Ziad Al Ahmadieh, the urologist Dr Nabil Ahmadieh and Wajdi Sayegh, the first martyr in the Lebanese National Resistance Front for the Syrian Socialist National Party.
