Wadi Karak: bold and beautiful!

You enter this canyon from the road leading from Karak to the Dead Sea. From the village of Mamuya, turn right and descend into the valley. Follow the stream down past several small waterfalls - water slides are possible.

Then comes a 60 meter cascade to go down abseiling, in one or several abseils. Shortly after the waterfall the Wadi turns lush and you are walking between walls of palm trees and vegetation. Another waterfall and after about 6 hours in the canyon, you arrive close to a dam and a reservoir, still reached from the road Karak/Dead Sea. Here you should have arranged to meet your transport; if not, there are several houses nearby, and it is usually possible to persuade one of the men there to take you to Karak for a small sum.
