Description Suggest change

This area is shade in the evening and has several routes to climb; 6 sport and 2 trad. Pretty much vertical wall climbing.

The rock here is very weird and unique. The rock seems very delicate and friable but is it very solid and climbable. I haven't come across other rock like this in the area which makes it very unique. It is very featured rock with lots of characteristic and highly fun to climb on. You can grab onto the smallest of holds ans spikes and surprisingly they do nor break off.

Getting There Suggest change

At the Wadi Bih turn, instead of turning keep straight (North) for 3km. you will pass another military base and a huge satellite dish. Turn right on to a gravel road and follow it for 500m, take the left fork for 1.1km, where it will meet a black-top road.
(Crag Visible from road) Turn left past the houses then leave the roadway directly towards the cliff.
