Very comfortable site (take off+landing), and the view is wonderfull !

The cleanest take off in Jordan : a clean almost flat area with rocks and small bushes down. Greatly placed in the thermal/breege activity. In case of strong wind at the 'West take off', you may be better here since it is a bit lower. Possible landings any place down, we landed close to the road that goes north to the Wadi Araba. Be careful here, we found some 'Venturi' effect apparently due to the hills on the west, wich made the wind direction at landing coming more from north than what we had at launch place. Coming from Little Petra (Beida), follow the road to the pass, then on your left on a rather clean track. After about 200m, the take off is on your left. na. na.

Strong breeze...
