View from Kerak, towards the Arava Valley
Early morning in the Sikh, hiking towards the ancient city of Petra
This time in Petra we went for a very long day of hike and additionally to the usual route we climbed up the high place of sacrifice. This was an area I didn't know and that was a fantastic discovery. This is now my favorite area in Petra !
Obelisks near the High Place of Sacrifice
The previous times I went to Petra, it was in the summer and the winter temperature was a blessing. We could never have hiked the 20km we did in the blazing summer heat.
More tombs in a lost valley, and some green
Near the end of Petra, beyond the Monastery
After a long day of hike we stopped for food and ice cream at the Movenpick and I would recommend having a stop there even if it is just for an ice cream, that has to be the nicest interior I have seen in the middle east (and prices are actually not ridiculous).
On the way back we stopped in Madaba to watch the mosaic map and in Mount Nebo for a nice sight towards Israel, but the overcast weather kind of killed the view.
