Enter Petra via ‘The Back Door’.  You will start your day trip at Siq al-Barid (Little Petra) and then visited the Neolithic village along the way. The entire route via Ad Deir, down to the ancient center of Petra, with the walk through the Siq to the Visitor Centre at the entrance is about 13 km long

Only very few tourists take the time to experience the topography and history of the area in this special way with breathtaking views of the mountains and across the wide basin of Wadi Araba. The climb up to the mountain plateau of Ad Deir is not very strenuous.
