Itinerary description
This is a very nice unknown route. You start from Shamasa and take the back tail to the Monastery. Then from the Monastery down through the unknow wadi that takes you to the Gardens in Petra. Then towards the White Plateau which is a tough upward stair hike. This is not quite clear and you have to search around for the path. Then back through wadi Numair up to the High place. Kindly note that at the end of the trail we were walking through the Seq. GPS signal was weak and thus the trail was a bit fuzzy. Just walk back through the Seq to the Visitors Center. Enjoy!
