Showka Hike & Climb (Fri 5 March)
On this trip we have combined a little bit of hiking, scrambling and climbing.
This is a medium level trip due to the balance required to navigate. However, it is not as physically demanding in terms of cardio. The bouldering can be challenging in some parts and a good understanding of this nature is required. However, this trip is not technical and no rope skills are involved. If you are sports active, have good fitness, and want to challenge yourself then this trip is for you.
This is a new route that we have recently designed to offer you an exciting experience to discover a different side of Wadi Showka.
The difficulty level of these canyons is 5 out of 10.
No rope skills or technical gear is required.
There is nothing technical about this hike.
• Distance: approx. 4km full loop trip.
• Endurance: Medium
• Involves steep climbing in certain areas, a bit of scrambling, parts with loose rocks, gentle stretches in the wadi. Depending on group pace the end part of the hike might be after sunset and we navigate using headlights.
• Around 3 hours round trip (moderate pace - depending on the group.)
Strictly NO SMOKING during activity.
