Itinerario
Il sentiero di Wadi Mudhluim, un'alternativa al Siq, attraverso il tunnel nabateo e uno stretto canyon tortuoso. Il Siq è l'ingresso più noto e spettacolare di Petra, ed è utilizzato dalla maggior parte dei visitatori delle rovine. Tuttavia, ci sono diversi ingressi alternativi alle rovine, che vedono molti meno visitatori e che vale la pena esplorare, soprattutto se si pianifica di trascorrere più di 1 o 2 giorni a Petra.
Dettagli del tour/percorso:
Nome del sentiero: Il sentiero di Wadi Mudhluim
Durata del percorso: 04-06 ore
Distanza del percorso: 06 – 07 km
Grado/Livello: Difficile
Posizione di partenza: cancello principale/centro visitatori
Luogo di arrivo: Qasr Al Bint / Basin Restaurant
Sebbene dovresti assolutamente seguire il Siq fino a Petra almeno una volta (e probabilmente più di una volta, in diversi momenti della giornata), se hai dedicato diversi giorni alla visita, il bellissimo Wadi Muthlim è una buona via d'accesso alternativa attraverso uno scenario mozzafiato, ma impiega non meno di due ore per portarti al Ninfeo nel centro della città. A causa del pericolo molto concreto di inondazioni improvvise, non dovresti assolutamente provarci durante la stagione delle piogge, all'incirca da novembre a marzo, e anche fino a maggio, potrebbero esserci pozze d'acqua stagnanti difficili da evitare che ospitano serpenti d'acqua: guadare sarebbe un errore.
Prima di iniziare la passeggiata, puoi fare una piccola deviazione dalla diga all'ingresso del Siq fino alla Nicchia dell'Aquila, incastonata nelle rocce a 400 m a nord-ovest. Attraversa il wadi sopra il tetto del tunnel e dirigiti a sinistra verso la seconda valle laterale; è una breve arrampicata sulla roccia liscia e calda fino a una serie di piccole nicchie scavate nella parete di destra, una delle quali presenta un'aquila sorprendentemente scolpita con le ali spiegate.
Tornati al tunnel, il Wadi Muthlim, pieno di oleandri ma con alte pareti che tagliano fuori ogni suono tranne il canto occasionale degli uccelli, è facilmente percorribile fino ai resti di un'altra diga nabatea; oltre, il sentiero diventa sempre più stretto fino a raggiungere un punto in cui un enorme masso blocca quasi la strada. È possibile passare oltre e il sentiero continua a restringersi fino a quando, con il fondo del wadi non più largo del tuo piede, raggiungi un incrocio a T; le frecce sulle solide pareti tutt'intorno ti indicheranno a sinistra. Questo wadi trasversale è il SiddMaajn, ugualmente stretto, ma splendidamente eroso dall'acqua che scorre. Mentre procedi, apparentemente muovendoti attraverso il cuore della montagna, noterai che i Nabatei erano qui prima di te: ci sono decine di nicchie scolpite, alcune con frontoni, altre con corna ricurve. È qui intorno che la strada potrebbe essere bloccata da pozze di roccia.
Alla fine, sbucherete nell'aperto Wadi Mataha, circa 600 metri a nord-est della Casa di Doroteo e per la maggior parte dei 2 km a nord-est del Ninfeo.
