The Wadi Rum consists of 278 square miles (720 sq. km) of desert wilderness. Commonly called ‘The Valley of the Moon’, Wadi Rum is a protected southern Jordan valley featuring sand varying in color from light tan to brick red and narrow canyons that cut deep into the huge granite and sandstone mountains, many concealing ancient rock drawings etched by the deserts inhabitants over millennia.
Wadi Rum has featured heavily in many mainstream movies, such as the famed Lawrence of Arabia (1962), or Red Planet (2000), where it was used to replicate the surface of Mars.
Very few trees can be found in Rum, with those that do exist falling into three categories: false figs, tamarisks, and acacias. Acacias provide the stereotypical image of a desert tree, with flat tops and spiny sparse branches.
The best time of the year to visit Wadi Rum is either in early spring (March/April) or in late autumn (October/November). Travelling between December and February is not ideal as both rain and snow are common, whilst between May and September, daytime temperatures are excessive (exceeding 40°C/104°F). Be aware that regardless of when you choose to travel, temperatures at night can fall below 0C.
