Description

Explore your experience once you visit Dana Nature Reseve & Al-Karak Castle.
- Dana Nature Reserve
The little village of Dana perches on a shelf of the mountainside that drops down into the Wadi ‘Araba rift. The single approach road ends at the beginning of the village, and from there narrow paths – barely wide enough to walk in – run between the houses, whose flat roofs provide an easy venue for social communication. Built of stone and wood, and plastered with mud, the houses blend perfectly with the landscape & what you can do in Dana Bedouin guides are available to fill your schedule with every possible outdoor activity. Highlights include canyoning, hiking, and mountain biking. Night-time activities include stargazing and a complimentary sunset hike.

- Al-Karak Castle
As one of the top ranked sites in Jordan, it is no surprise that Karak Castle is the main reason for taking a trip to this ancient city. Karak Castle is perhaps the most legendary of the crusader castles in Jordan due to its significant role in Nabataean history. Karak Castle was built in the 12th Century and is believed to have been designed by the king of Israel at the time. The castle is located around 124 kilometers from the capital city of Amman. The castle is split over seven levels of passageways, dungeons, kitchens, and a chapel.
There is also a museum with artifacts and historical information about the castle. On a clear day, visitors can see as far as the Dead Sea from the top of the castle.
