Itinerary description

This easy hike first goes east through a dry river bed then after 5.5 km you find the trail that takes you up on the southern rim and return on a path up there.
Especially on weekends the wadi is home to picnicking families and youths arriving in cars some playing loud music. As you venture deeper into the valley they get fewer and after the second dam at 5 km they are all gone. Unfortunately, there is a huge amount of litter in the valley but virtually none on the deserted southern rim
