For this reason, plan for more hours than normal and always carry a headlamp, since it is possible that you use it almost every day. That is why this tour is intended for autonomous climbers with experience in trad climbing.‍ This trip is for intermediate climbers who want to explore an adventurous environment. We will focus on sport climbing, bolted multipitch, and if any of you want to try some trad multipitch gems, we'll get a guide for you if you need one. Besides the climbing side of Wadi Rum, we will discover the bedouin routes, used by locals for the last few hundred years.
