Ultimate Jordan Bike Adventure

Meet your guide at 8 am and transfer south to Shobak. Our cycling adventure starts from nearby Shobak castle, the first of the series of Crusader Castles built in Jordan; get a chance to take some panoramic photos before we take off. We start with a familiarization ride as we cycle for a short bit on road to get to our local host house for a delicious lunch. Some time to relax and we carry on biking off-road on a mixture of dirt tracks and roads to Little Petra. This stage of Bike Trail is stated as one of the most epic ones. The route contours around the mountains of Dana and Petra with great views across the Jordan valley. We finish the ride with a visit to Little Petra. Then cycle to your overnight camp
hidden in the rocks and enjoy the hospitality of the Bedouins.

Overnight: Bedouin Camp near Little Petra

After breakfast it’s time to start your hike. Enter Petra via ‘The Back Door’ avoiding most of the tourists. Good tracks go pleasantly down Wadi Ghurab amidst sandstone mountains guarding the approaches to Petra. This way follows a Nabataean route out of the valley and skirting round the final mountain on a natural rock terrace which has been ‘improved’ for the safety of walkers. Even so, it still narrows slightly before reaching a hidden plateau high above the impressive chasm of Wadi Siyyagh. Just beyond, carved into the cliff face, ‘The Monastery’ suddenly comes into view, where there is a Bedouin café for refreshments if you would like. Nabataean steps then lead down into ancient Petra; through which the route goes before exiting past ‘The Treasury’ and though the famous ‘Petra Siq’ to the shops, cafés and hotels of Wadi Musa. Then take a short transfer back to Little Petra for the second night on your stay.
