The Siq Trail: Wadi Mujib, Jordan 2018 

geekafreak it definitely was not easy. You spend a lot of time fighting the current. In a lot of places it wins and you go backwards. Lol.

They have lockers to use. I suppose you could also leave some less valuable items in the car as well.

S W it was during Ramadan while we visited. A lot of things change during Ramadan and you should do all you can to respect those observing. Most tourist areas are open but a lot of other business are affected by Ramadan. With Wadi Mujib, there are no guides during Ramadan. We went unguided. Adds a bit more challenge.

Nandhini Sathyamurthy Karine wire contact lenses during our trip without issue. You should be fine. We saw many people of all builds and levels of fitness doing the trek. There are guides available as well to assist. We didn’t have a guide and it was a bit harder.

Guides are extra but would solve your concern very easily. The know the river and you won’t have to fumble around as much as we did.

​ @Ryan Campbell @LaViajerita 87 , we didn't hire a guide for it, as you have no time limit for the trail you can go at any pace you wan't. When we came across a more difficult part you could just ask bystanders, or even guides from the group that happens to be there at the same time, they are so friendly, just like the rest of Jordan's hospitality.. Very cool experience, and the large rock facades and canyon gives a lot of shade and cooling, definitely try!!

Amira Z a guide can be very helpful. The decision is up to you. I am not certain of the cost as I didn’t use a guide. You could inquire on their website for prices.

25-35 jd

Alfredo Ramirez the vests are supplied. We just wore running shoes. Water shoes would likely be easier overall but we were not hindered in running shoes at all.

This was video was filmed after extreme high water levels. The water level is not normally this high. It had rained for several days and the site was shut down for several days due to high water levels. Most of the time, it would not be as deep as this. Best to check with the visitor centre to see what the water levels are like before you arrive.

Eivina Lazickaitė The water temperature was quite comfortable. No need for special clothing. We wore pants and short sleeve shirts and had no problems.

Karen Becker this is the short trail option. It was about an hour and a half round trip.

Ryan Campbell thank you!

Hina #bepositive thanks very much. There were several sections of the trail where you need to swim to get across to the other side. I am not suggesting you can or can’t do it, that is up to you, but there are sections of deep water and no ropes

@@a4oooo Thanks Ryan for the reply. Have many more trips and keep sharing the videos with us.

It was warm but we were coming from Wadi Rum so it was nice to be in the water to cool off for a while.

Was the water warm that time of year ,, did you drive

Thomas Farrelly water was warm. No concerns about being in the water for up to an hour. We drove from Wadi Rum.

Ryan Campbell Ahh cheers Ryan … looks totally amazing I’m checking it all out now trying to plan 👍…

Visited in May. You can find all you need at the guide website below: www.wildjordan.com/eco-tourism-section/canyoning

This water level was not normal. They had a lot of rain days before this and actually closed the sites due to water level. It is usually much less. A guide would be recommended if you are not certain. They can definitely help you.

We were there in the spring and there were a few days where the rains closed the trails for a few days due to high water levels. You also should be aware that guides (if you want to hire a guide) are not available during Ramadan.

Escapade With Juned this was a lot of rain for the site. Rains for several days before this closed the site due to unsafe water levels. I would not say this is the normal water level. You would be best to check with the park office to find out seasonal averages in October.

@@a4oooo thanks for ur reply and may I know ur date of travel to this site please

Escapade With Juned I visited during May 2017

Thanks

افضل وقت لزيارة السيق فصل الربيع حيث يكون مستوى الماء مرتفع ..أما اكتوبر تكون المياة عند أدنى مستويات لأنه يكون نهاية صيف حار وجاف

Any shoes that can get wet will work. I just wore a pair of hiking shoes.
