Trek to Ancient Petra
This adventurous trek takes in unique landscapes in one of the friendliest countries in the world, following ancient Bedouin paths for 100 spectacular, vista-packed kilometres, ending at the impressive rock-hewn facades of Petra’s red canyons – one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. From initially gentle hills, sun-baked wadis and arid desert, cross dramatic mountains, sandstone canyons and wild-sculpted escarpments then time to explore Jordan's ancient Red-Rose City - Petra! A must-see on many people's lists. Face challenges from intense heat to steep, remote terrain, and stay motivated knowing your efforts are raising funds to help us answer calls for help. End with a much-deserved day floating at the Dead Sea.
