  The Jordanian Dead Sea Rift includes some of the world's most rugged and colorful desert landscapes. Its dramatic canyons are only now beginning to be revealed, offering the trekker untamed desert wilderness. Year-round streams, waterfalls and lush vegetation are all here to be found, dotting the desert with numerous oases. Rising above the canyons are mazes of sandstone domes and isolated cliffs with spectacular vistas. Bedouin nomads roam through the region, herding their goats and often still living in goat-hair tents, not far from world-famous archeological sites such as the Nabataean city of Petra. Treks in the Jordanian Dead Sea Rift include easy walks suitable for all, as well as challenging expeditions through remote areas, only rarely visited by either Bedouin or trekker. Descending several of the Rift's canyons requires abseiling skills and equipment. It is amazing that a region as spectacular as the Jordanian Dead Sea Rift remained unknown to hikers for so many years!
  The book describes 68 routes ranging from one to six days. Among the routes are easy walks for dayhikers as well as challenging treks. 12 canyoning routes demand abseiling skills. The book is 264 pages long including 35 detailed trekking maps, 3 true-color satellite images and 24 color pages. The vast majority of the routes were never described anywhere before!

Many of the routes were unknown prior to the first edition of the guide, and this second edition provides information on new climbing areas and other unexplored regions for those who wish to make their own discoveries.
