    Amazing natural arch formation in the middle of wadi rum desert. The hike was not as tough as it appeared from the ground. But one need shoe with a good grip. The view from top is rewarding.

    This is a high natural rock bridge deep inside the Wadi Rum Protected Area. This was our last stop on the jeep safari. It's an adventurous experience climbing this huge rock and then crossing the bridge itself. The feeling at the top of the bridge is quite amazing.

    We visited this location on 4-hour tour that we booked in advance. The tour started in Wadi Rum village and this was one of the stop points. To climb up you have to wear good climbing shoes. It's not to difficult, nor too easy. You have to be careful when climbing and especially when going down. Don-t forget to give your camera to your guide in order to have the photos.

    Beautiful naturally formed stone arch. Easy climb. ( Max 20 minutes ) and has a beautiful view but you need to take care when you do it. Nice place for photos and videos. Must include in your Jeep safari.

    High natural rock that you can climb on. Worth to get on and ask someone to take a picture. Good to have shoes instead of flip flops or so.

    It’s a nice rock arch but way too crowded. There was a long queue and some people really took forever, walking up and down the arch dozen times. Really way too busy for my liking.

    Absolutely terrifying climb up to the rock arch. I am afraid of heights, so no surprise there, and I should also declare that the climb was pretty easy. The arch is probably 20m up and 2m wide so not for the faint hearted. However it was great for a photo opportunity.

    Interesting spot. Need shoes with good grip as at times trail is narrow and slippery. The only thing that made me doubt was the fact that in some places the arch looks as if it had human intervention. There are spots similar to cement, but it might also be just my impression. Prepare for a hoard of tourists.

    Great experience! Those who are not afraid of heights and are sure-footed and a little bit sporty can cross the Arch. Good luck! 👍

    Nice and big natural arch, the climb to reach the top is a bit slippy but the view from there is really beautiful

    Beautiful natural formed sand stone arch, try not to miss in your Jeep tour at wadi rum. Not that hard to climb but you need to take care when you do it. Nice place for taking photos.

    Wadi Rum is one of the best places in Jordan. Um Frouth Rock Bridge was one of many spots we visited when we took a tour in the desert with a local guide. The way to reach the top of the rock is not that difficult, however there is a bit of climbing. If you have children it harder you need to take extra attention and should be at least two adults to help them reach the top. All aside the view from the top is amazing and you will take a lot of amazing pictures there.

    It's easy-to-climb rock arch. It takes only few minutes, but the view from the top is great! If you aren't interesting for climbing, just take a cup of tea and enjoy a bit of shade, do the photos of your mates when they reach the top.

    A great place to observe one of the natural wonders of wadi rum. There is a difficult access to the top of the bridge but please take caution as it can be dangerous traversing the slippery path on the right hand side as you look at the bridge.

    Absolutely beautiful and provides vast views of the Wadi Rum desert. It’s a long trek by Jeep to the site but worth the bumpy ride. Your guide can provide information about the area and teach you about the Bedouin people and their traditions. Enjoy!

  • 5/5 Eric F. 4 years ago on Google
    Impressive. Fun to reach the top, but the guide should warm people that getting up is hard, but then getting down safely is especially down are quite challenging. The guide really should coach first timers about where to put their feet for each of about a dozen steps in the way down. When we were there tourists were taking turns helping each other.
