Mujib Canyon

Jordan - Travel - Back to index

By: Carlo Piccinelli

Mujib Canyon on Google Maps
The deep cleft in the rock, carved over the centuries by the Wadi Mujib river, is today one of the most important tourist attractions by those who visit the Jordanian coast of the Dead Sea. A half-day's journey to climb and descend the river that flows through the canyon between natural pools, waterfalls and refreshing traits in the shade of tall rocky walls that penetrate into the desert. An easy route for everyone, without any danger thanks to the ropes attached to the rock that facilitate the ascent of the little waterfalls along the river. A pleasant moment of sport and adrenaline for those embarking on a trip to Jordan.
