North to South. The ultimate expedition crossing Wadi Rum from the northern limestone highlands to the southern dark granite.
"This is not just a trip; it is a crossing through time and space."
We begin at the white limestone highlands in the North, descend through historic caravan routes to dive into the sea of red sands, and finally reach the dark granite mountains in the South at the Saudi border.
Seven days of isolation, history, and stunning geological changes. It is the most complete journey for those who want to read the book of the desert from cover to cover. Enjoy lightweight hiking as our 4x4 logistical vehicle handles your luggage and sets up your evening bivouac.
Seven days of pure hiking. Crossing all of Wadi Rum from the northern plateau to the southern border.
Exceptional Start: We start from outside the reserve at "Ras An-Naqab" or "Old Humayma" (1400m altitude).
The Landscape: Following the ancient caravan route, descending from the white limestone plateau towards the red sands. Experience a radical change in nature.
Overnight: Wild camp at the "Northern Entrance" near Jebel Marsa.
The Path: Venturing into pristine northern valleys, crossing "Makharas Canyon" alongside the towering "Seven Pillars of Wisdom."
The Challenge: After lunch, we cross open sandy plains to enter the "Um Ishrin" massif. The soft sands add an enjoyable physical challenge.
Overnight: In the heart of Um Ishrin valley, surrounded by towering mountain walls.
The Path: Reaching "Barrah Canyon," the longest corridor in Wadi Rum featuring vertical rock walls and unique acoustic echoes.
The Experience: A meditative walk on flat ground, providing a total disconnect from the outside world.
Overnight: Camping at the eastern exit of the canyon, perfect for morning sunrise views.
Destination: Heading south towards Jebel "Burdah." We will hike around its immense base (with an optional climb available).
Afternoon: Walk to the "Um Fruth" area, featuring an easy climb up the bridge for iconic photographs.
Overnight: A secluded wild camp near Um Fruth, gathering around the campfire.
Turning Point: Leaving tourist areas behind for the "Deep South." We cross Wadi Saabit and Wadi Nugra.
Geological Change: Watch the sands turn white and yellow, while the mountains shift to imposing dark granite. A true feeling of the "End of the World."
Overnight: Deep in Wadi Saabit, near the Saudi border.
The Goal: Climbing Jebel "Um Ad Dami," Jordan's highest peak. A steep, non-technical ascent of approximately 2 hours.
The Reward: Sweeping views of Wadi Rum to the north and the Red Sea to the south from the summit.
Overnight: Final night under a clear sky, far from light pollution, reflecting on the great journey.
The Conclusion: We start with a final Bedouin breakfast in the desert heart, followed by a gentle short walk.
