The canyon narrows and the river dares you forward — cool, clear water sluices between vertical sandstone walls as sunlight slices into the gorge. On this full-day excursion you start at Wadi Mujib’s Siq Trail, a river-cut slot canyon where wading, scrambling and short rope-assisted sections punctuate a 2–3 hour passage through one of Jordan’s most dramatic landscapes.

Water-ready footwear
Wear closed-toe water shoes with good tread — river stones are slippery and protection from sharp edges is important.
Bring a dry bag
Protect your phone, passport and camera in a small waterproof bag; you’ll pass through pools and splash-prone sections.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Start hydrated and sip frequently; canyon walking is deceptively taxing and temperatures near the Dead Sea can be high.

This trip is physically demanding and not recommended for those with heart, spinal, or pregnancy restrictions listed by the operator.
