The nature of Jordan

The nature of Jordan

The Jordanian landscapes have little green, but there is no lack of beauty, indeed. The main destinations of a travel itinerary in the Nature of Jordan are 4: Dana's reserve, the Dead Sea, the Wadi Rum desert and the Red Sea. Between a trekking and a dip, you can also make canyoning in the Wadi Mujib. ( Find here all the information about the Jordan ).
The southern end of Jordan presents an outlet on the Red Sea with a few kilometers of coast. The city of Aqaba is not particularly attractive and the nearby industries are even less, but underwater nature gives show, between corals and colored fish.

Moving north, the Wadi Rum desert is met. Sandy flats surrounded by red mountains are spectacular, ideal for a jeep or dromedary itinerary. Even the story has passed by here through the deeds of the Heroic (and complicated) Lawrence of Arabia. You can sleep in the desert in one of the tendata camps, admiring the stars in what will surely be the most peaceful night of the trip.
To the north of the Wadi Rum desert, the travel itinerary continues with the Dana Reserve, the most fascinating Natural Park of Jordan, with beautiful trekking possibilities. The landscape has canyons, rocks with strange shapes and lively colors, and even some tree and shrub that, for Jordanian standards, means lots of vegetation.
Dana's natural park you can continue the travel itinerary to the north towards the Dead Sea and the nearby Wadi Mujib park.

The Dead Sea is located 390 meters below sea level: the deepest depression of the terrestrial crust. Its salty, hot and viscous waters float great, burn wounds and itches in indexable places. The sludge of the Dead Sea will leave you the smooth skin like baby.
In the Wadi Mujib park, instead, it is possible to do canyoning (from spring to autumn) in a spectacular throat traveled by a river.
