Climbing and adventure Trekking in Jordan*.

One week long we will trek, climb and get to know Jordan’s majestic and largest valley- Wadi Rum (The Rum valley). The valley is located 1 hour east of Aqaba, it is about 100km long and 60 km wide with the Bedouin village of Rum at 800 m above sea level.
The breath taking view of the surroundings is dominated by huge sheer cliffs of red, yellow and black sandstone that rise up to 500 meters of height above the flat valley floor and moon landscape valleys.
The autumn is the best season to visit this hidden gem, the very seldom rain (if it comes at all!) clears the air and the temperatures ranges between 28 degrees Celsius during the day and 5 degrees Celsius in the night.
