Jebel Burdah Rock Bridge
1 or 2 days climbing adventure
Burdah Arch is deservedly one of the best known and the most spectacular sites in Wadi Rum. This time we don't stop at the bridge but keep going until we reach the summit. Please take note that this is more difficult than the climb to the bridge, and novices in the mountains should not attempt it.

Going up and down this mountain will take you 5 hours to the top. You will cross the bridge on the way, but you will come down by a different route.
For a reasonably fit person, this climb is no more than a scramble with a couple of more difficult bits (grade 3 on the French scale) just before and just after the bridge, but it is very easy to miss the right way. Provided you have a properly qualified mountain guide with you with a rope, this is a marvellous and exciting outing and the views from the top are among the best in the whole Wadi Rum area.
