Nine days · Eight nights

Walk the Land

The same holy ground, on foot. For a congregation tired of the coach window and able to manage a long day's walking.

In short

  • Dana village down to Feynan, and a candlelit night at the ecolodge
  • Into Petra by the back trail, arriving at the Monastery from above
  • The Mujib gorge, walked upstream against the current
  • Sixteen travellers maximum — reserve permits and Feynan beds
