Itinerary description
Parking available in Wadi Ghalilah.
Left ridge up to the stairway considered as moderate as there were no clear trails. Cairns are available but few are misleading or don't exist.
Stairway can be located with some preparation and common sense. However, for a solo first timer, it took more time than I expected to ensure not following the wrong path and having to backtrack.
Beautiful scenery and a village on top of the stairway.
Right ridge down is easy.
