Overview

The day starts at Wadi Rum Rest House and you'll take a scenic one-hour drive across the desert to reach the base of the mountain.

The hiking trail begins in a sandy valley and gradually becomes steeper, with a distinctive trail leading up to the summit. The trail is rocky and you'll follow the guide to the top. The panoramic views from the top are breathtaking. The round-trip hike takes around 2-3 hours, offering a great workout and a chance to experience the natural beauty of the area.

Once back down, you'll enjoy lunch in the shade. In the afternoon, we continue by 4X4 across Wadi Saabit Valley known for its endless red sand and peaceful atmosphere.
