Outdoor Adventures
Jordan
offers exciting choices to incentive achievers
with an adventurous spirit. From sleeping under
the stars in the desert to diving in one of
the most beautiful coral reefs in the world;
from snorkelling, trekking, and mountain climbing
to car racing and trips on camels.
Adventures
in the Desert
Stay
overnight in Jordan's most spectacular desert,
Wadi Rum. The stars are never brighter than
in the silent desert darkness. The colours created
by sunrise or sunset over the lunar-like mountains
and canyons are exhilarating.
Take four-wheel drive trips through the strange
beauty of the magnificent desert scenery. If
you're more adventurous, try the camel caravans.
Adventures
in Dead Sea Rift Valley
Experience
mountain climbing at over 1,300 feet below sea
level at Wadi Mujib. Climb among cascading waterfalls
in the beautifully coloured canyon of the Mujib
River from the lowest point on earth to a height
of several thousand feet.
Adventures
in the Red Sea at Aqaba
The
splendid weather in Aqaba during more than eight
months of the year, allows you to enjoy sailing,
water skiing, and swimming. Diving and snorkelling
will certainly fulfil your heart's delight,
as you spot the colourful and varied marine
life in the Red Sea.
Adventures
at the Jordan Auto Track
Located
just outside Madaba, the Jordan Auto Track offers
would-be race car drivers a chance to test their
speed, obstacle avoidance, and a mud challenge.
The Royal Automobile Club of Jordan hosts two
international events as well as many national
competitions for those who would rather watch
than drive.
