  Cross the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan from north to south on the Jordan Trail (JT), a challenging 657km trek that begins amidst the Greco-Roman remains of Umm Qais and ends on the shores of the Red Sea at Aqaba. Along the way the route visits the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Petra and dramatic desert landscapes including Wadi Rum and the wild Dana Biosphere Reserve, crossing Mediterranean hills and rocky scarps, arid creeks, canyons and wadis. This guide divides the Jordan Trail into 35 stages across eight sections, so you can walk individual segments, complete a region or thru-hike the entire trail from end to end. Each stage description opens with practical information on distance, ascent, descent, difficulty and resupply options, helping you plan the day ahead and adapt your pace to the conditions. Public buses and taxis connect the main towns along the route, while the Jordan Trail Association offers guided support for walkers who prefer not to go it alone. Homestays and simple hotels provide overnight accommodation for some stages, while wild camping is essential in more remote sections.
