The "Small Three Bridges" trip
Starting from Rum village, we follow much the same route as the "classic trip". You can hike (alone) through the Barragh Canyon, and enjoy the silence there. We have lunch in this famous valley. Later we drive to a place where you have a view of the bridge high on Jebel Burdah, and you can take another hike in the afternoon through a very attractive narrow valley towards another rock bridge. You can climb this one as well if you wish - it is much easier than Burdah - before sleeping in the desert and returning to Rum for the early buses the next day. This is in fact a less taxing version of the "Three Bridges Trek" to be done in one day, omitting the more difficult passage through the Rakebat Canyon and the climb to the Burdah Bridge. It offers about two and a half hours in a jeep and the same amount of time walking. The walks are straightforward and do not need an accompanying guide. The jeep will go on ahead and wait for you about three quarters of the way down, just in case you prefer to ride the last bit. Please note that this is an easy tour, and is mainly booked by older people or those with small children. If you think you would prefer something a bit more challenging and adventurous, you might like to look at the programme "Jeep to Burdah Arch"
