Itinerary description
Start: wadi showka park
We started by climbing the stairs by the dam
Go up to the top and the follow the trail to descend
Youll get a crossing where you can go right, left or straight. Straight takes to a harder trail that ends up being about 10K. Did you go to the right you can find the camping area onto the pools. This trail map will take you to the left, which is an easy 4Kish loop.
It is mostly flat and very easy the descent was a little slippery with loose rocks. I think this is due to the recent rains, but probably usually it wouldn’t be a problem. Take you right back to the car park area near the roundabout. My small dog (10kg spitz) was able to do it so I think most people can handle it. It took us about two hours but you could probably finish it in a little over an hour. We took lots of breaks.
