The classic multi-pitch

Four bolted pitches, about a hundred metres, from 6a+ to 6b+. The classic sport multi-pitch in Wadi Rum: short enough for half a day, sustained enough to remember.

You climb as a rope team with Eid, Bedouin guide and climber. You need to be at ease on 6a already.

A great Wadi Rum experience!

“From start to finish, our experience with Amina for the planning and Eid on site was perfect. Our children were enchanted by what they saw and by their conversations with Eid, our guide […] We absolutely recommend it!”

Frequently asked questions

What level do I need for Crazy Camel?
Pitches range from 6a+ to 6b+: you need to be at ease on 6a. If you are a beginner, start with sport climbing.
Do I need multi-pitch experience?
It helps, but Eid explains belays and the descent before you start. Tell us your experience when booking.
How do we get down?
By abseil, with Eid. He shows you the rope work at the foot of the route.
What gear is provided?
Harness, helmet, ropes, quickdraws and belay gear are provided. Helmets are worn for the whole outing.
Can we climb after rain?
Not right away: wet sandstone becomes fragile, so we let the rock dry for a day. We then suggest another outing or another day.
How do I pay?
In cash, in Jordanian dinars (JOD), on site. No cards, and no deposit when you book.
Can we climb in summer?
Yes, but only early in the morning or late in the day, because of the heat. Spring and autumn are still the best seasons.
What about 4 people or more?
The price is on request: message us and we will organise the outing for your group.
