Itinerary description
|
This route runs entirely by road or old asphalt roads very bad so it is advisable to use a mountain bike or hybrid. The route ends where it starts, but in the last few kilometers I ran out of battery in the gps and the end of the track was not recorded but, as I say, it is circular, so in order to finish we just have to follow the road and we will arrive to our cars without major problem. I recommend it to do after rain, since there is no possibility of finding mud on the way. It is a fairly easy route but along its more than 31km we find several interesting climbs, so it is very good for training not very intense or when you do not have much time. It is only 25 minutes from Amman. The views during the route are spectacular with the hills at the beginning of Al Rumman, the areas of pine trees near the Scandinavian Forest and the VIP jail for corrupt government members. We will also cross the town of Rumaimin, curious to have almost a mosque and a church (see photo). Also here we can refuel of drink and food if necessary.
