For adventure lovers we
offer trekking and scrambling in wadi rum desert
that gives you a chance to get closer to
nature’s.and to see some wild animals... or at least
their tracks!. Trekking in desert is probably the
best way to have a real desert experience. It's
quitter and slower than a jeep tour And the
Scrambling routes are mostly based on the old
Bedouin trails in the mountains. They were used to
find water for the goats and for hunting. Most of
the time it is hill walking but sometimes you have
to use your hands to help you along.
On the scrambling tour we will take you to parts of
Wadi Rum that most tourists never see! These trips
are for adventurous people who are in good shape and
enjoy a challenge.
Because these trips are more difficult then hiking
routes.
We also provide programs combining the hiking trips
with the simpler scrambling. the most gusts we have
the appreciate our combining trekking and scrambling
tours.
The sides for the
scrambling :
Jebel Burdah
This is one of the most famous hikes in Wadi Rum.
Jebel Burdah has a big arch on the way to it's top.
The way to the arch is a walk in the mountain. In
some places you might need to use your hands. The
guide will take a rope with him in order to use it
for safety only. We cross the arch where you have
stunning views across the desert and go down passing
by another way. |

Jebel Um Adaami
This mountains its (1832M above sea level-
Wadi Rum village is 1000m above sea level)
Jebel Um Adaami is the highest mountain in Jordan.
Going there requires a long jeep transfer to the
South. We hike along a sheperd's path up to the
summit. From there, you see all the mountains of
Wadi Rum, te border with Saudi Arabia and, if you
are lucky and the weather is very clear, we even see
the gulf of Aqaba and the red sea. To get there, we
drive through the ever changing desert of Wadi Rum
which is a beautiful journey by itself! The hike up
the mountain is quite simple, and the panorama at
the top is surprising. Jebel Um Adami is situated on
a geological border and the contrast between the Rum
landscape and the view towards Saudi Arabia is
stunning. By Jeep: 2 hours
The way up will likely take an hour and a half
The way down will also likely take an hour and a
half. |

Very important : You should wear
something on your head and bring plenty of sunscreen
with you. You will also need a shoulder bag or
rucksack for for daytime necessities. They would
chiefly be a camera, a bottle of water, some kind of
head covering, a snack if you think you will need
one, perhaps a light sweater or something with long
sleeves, and of course anything personal you think
you might need.
Shoes : trekking
sandals will be enough for most people (NOT beach
sandals!) For scrambling you might prefer to bring
sturdy shoes or boots, and certainly for the
mountains. Don't forget a supply of cotton socks.
Otherwise whatever you like : tennis shoes or
sneakers, boat shoes or trainers are all fine for
hiking, as of course are the trekking sandals
previously suggested. |
