How To Reach Mujib Nature Reserve

Welcome to Mujib Nature Reserve

The Mujib Nature Reserve, located near the east coast of the Dead Sea in Jordan, is an exceptional destination for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers. Known for its dramatic landscapes and biodiversity, reaching this reserve can be an exciting part of your travel journey. Here's how to get there:

Traveling to Mujib Nature Reserve

By Air:

Queen Alia International Airport in Amman serves as the primary gateway for international travelers to Jordan. Upon arrival at the airport, the reserve is approximately a 90-minute drive away.

By Road:

To visit Mujib Nature Reserve by road, there are several options:

  • Rental Car: Renting a car from Amman or directly at Queen Alia International Airport gives you the flexibility to travel at your own pace. Take the Dead Sea road heading south to reach the reserve.
  • Taxi or Private Transfer: Taxis are readily available, and private transfers can be arranged through your hotel or tour operator. Be sure to agree on the fare beforehand if you opt for a taxi.
  • Public Transportation: While more economical, it is less common as it may not offer direct routes to the reserve. A combination of buses or minibusses is needed, and services may be infrequent or require transfers.

By Organized Tour:

Many visitors choose to book organized tours from Amman or the Dead Sea hotels. These usually include transport and can be a convenient and informative way to visit the reserve.

Important Tips:

  • Best Time to Visit: The reserve is typically open from April to October, and visiting hours can vary seasonally. Plan your visit accordingly.
  • Ensure you have a good map and a working GPS as cellular reception can be spotty in remote areas.
  • If you're not accustomed to driving in Jordan, a private transfer or guided tour might be a safer and more relaxing option.

Whether you’re looking for a day of hiking through the canyons or a peaceful retreat in nature, Mujib Nature Reserve welcomes you with its unique charm and beauty.
