Lawrence's Spring
The Spring is at the top of a short scramble - head to the Fig Tree. It is located 2 km southwest of Wadi Rum village. The spring is named in honor of Lawrence's evocative description in The Seven Pillars of Wisdom: "in front of us a path, pale with use, zigzagged up the cliff-plinth... Among the trees, in the hidden crannies of the rock, issued strange cries, the echoes, turned into music, of the Arabs watering the camels at the springs which flowed out three hundred feet above the ground." Although the pool itself is largely unimpressive, being a stagnant puddle, the views across the desert are truly stunning.

Wadi Rum Protected Area
Among the vast expanses of rust-coloured sand in the Wadi Rum desert, the RED SAND DUNE, or “Al Hasany” in Arabic, is the most famous one. Officially named "Al Ramal", it has become better known by its descriptive name. It stands out against a cliff side, as if it was part of the mountain. Coloured red by the presence of iron oxide, this dune is smooth and soft underfoot making it perfect to walk up barefoot!

Jebel Khazali
Khazali Canyon is the site of the petroglyphs etched into the caves walls depicting humans and antelopes dating back to the Thamudic era. This narrow valley contains many Nabataean rock carvings of humans and animals.
Jebel Khazali, a peak located in the middle of the Wadi Rum Reserve opens up into a narrow crevice about 100 meters long. Its inner walls are covered with Thamudic, Nabataean, and Islamic inscriptions, as well as rock carvings depicting humans and animals. Remarkable are the soles of feet petroglyphs, which might have had religious significance.
