Romancing the Desert: Hiking in Wadi Rum |
|
|
Explore the spectacular landscape of gigantic monolithic rocks, shaped by weather and winds
| Overview | |
|
Stunning in its natural beauty, Wadi Rum epitomizes the romance of the desert. This Jordanian desert has been casting a spell for centuries with its lunar landscape of deep ancient valleys and towering sandstone mountains rising out of the sand. A major chunk of David Lean’s epic movie Lawrence of Arabia was filmed in Wadi Rum. The vast silence and grandeur of Wad Rum is best experienced on foot. Hikers can enjoy the tranquillity of the boundless empty spaces, explore the canyons and water holes and discover 4000-year-old rock drawings among the other spectacular treasures this vast wilderness holds in store. No visit to Jordan can be complete without exploring the unparalleled natural beauty of Wadi Rum.
