This book describes walks, treks, climbs and caves in the district of Al Ayoun just north of the great castle of Ajloun in North Jordan. It is a region with its own uniquely beautiful forested valleys, flower-covered springtime meadows, orchards, olive groves and sites of antiquity dating back into prehistoric times. Al Ayoun is in beautiful limestone country with walks and treks to cater for all abilities. There is also caving here, including a recently discovered pothole, and new climbs on cliffs that have only just been discovered. All this combined with Jordan's famous hospitality exemplified by the people of Al Ayoun who welcome you to their villages, their homestays, their unsurpassable local food, and to the Ayoun Trail and associated routes in this guide. Within these pages, you will find all there is to know about adventures in Al Ayoun, one of the most beautiful and verdant regions in the Kingdom, where the local people live a quiet rural life, tolerant and understanding of other religions and customs and always with a warm welcome for visitors.
