After you’ve been to Massada and descend on the other side you are directed to a well marked trail (red/white paint) through the wadi that after 15 minutes goes steep (more than 40 degrees) up. My wife then did not want to continue because I promised her (as was indicated) an easy hike. This hike cannot qualifies as easy.
Paul, I'm so sorry for you and your wife, I qualified it according to my feelings, however it may be something between easy and moderate. Anyway thanks for your remark.
