REGION 8: RED SEA TO WADI RUM
Leaving the warm waters of the Red Sea and the port of Aqaba behind, you reach the first pass and the last view of the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba, beyond which lie the mountains of Sinai. The trail here follows old shepherd paths, winding its way east across desert wadis and over granite mountains striated with basalt dyke intrusions. Continuing through the magnificent desert landscape
the trail passes the cliffs of Jabal Qattar and Jabal Khazali and weaves between the unique and colorful backdrops of Wadi Rum’s sandstone desert mountains. Before arriving at Wadi Rum village, the trail passes beneath the towering cliffs of Jabal Um Ishrin and Jabal Rum through the iconic landscape of Wadi Rum – vast, echoing and godlike wrote T.E. Lawrence. Finishing at Wadi Rum village offers a taste of Bedouin life and hospitality.
