Prepare yourself well for this adventure, especially for trails that contain water. The Mujib terrain is rugged and the weather can get very hot. You need to be able to swim for some of the hikes and trek for several hours, in addition to descending a 20 m high waterfall. You must have the ability to hike and have no fear of water and heights. It can be tough, but the excitement makes it worthwhile.
Wear light and comfortable clothing, preferably T-shirts and long shorts (to protect legs). We advise you to wear a bathing suit under your clothes. Bear in mind that all your clothes will get totally wet in any case (except on dry trails), so don’t wear anything you don’t want to ruin. You may want to bring extra outfits to change after the hike.
Your shoes will also get totally wet, so wear a pair that is light, dries quickly, and is not slippery, and that you won’t feel bad about if it gets ruined with water. You may wear hiking sandals as well.
Sunscreen is important; along with caps (the beginning of the hike is under the sun but later it is shady throughout the canyons).
Always remember to bring drinking water and light food for snacking during the hike. Please make sure to bring 2 bottles or more of water per person, depending on the hike.
A first-aid kit is always a good thing to bring along on any hike. The guide will have one, but you may want to consider bringing along your own just to be safe.
Please note that you are going to hike and to get wet, so sensitive items should be put in waterproof bags (i.e. cell phones, cameras, ipods, etc).
Do not wear any jewelry or expensive watches.
The reserve is not responsible for the loss of any belongings.
A limited number of life vests are available upon request.
