Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
March 2019: enter the wadi from the East, from Thibab, good gravel road till the last village Suwayh; two spots to park and stay for the night (2nd is nicer, but possibly a bit tricky for big rigs)
ca. 1h to the beautiful pools to the southwest
PS. you may get approached from a local (name Keflan) and invited for tea .. he will openly ask for money)
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Very nice place, for 4-5 cars. We stood there with one 7.5T truck, as well as with a Landy and our Sprinter, directly in front of 2 pools.
A little bit tricky to get here, but nevertheless no problem with a 4x4.
Spectacular camping here. Possibly best spot we’ve stayed. Once you get to the village pass the big waterfall pool and stay on the dirt road to the right. It goes up a small hill and down into the wadi. Cross the water and turn a bend, keep going to the end of the short road. It looks rough but its ok in 4wd. Keflan indeed met us and showed is the route! He has an injury and hopes tourists will give him some small money for his help. It was very valuable info. Park and camp on a large flat area beside the most spectacular twin, large, green and clear swimming pools with the village in sight. The towering mountains all around are stunning especially at sunset. Locals are all welcoming.
