Itinerary description
This is a long but easy hike through a sandstone (unnamed, as far as I can tell) wadi 2 wadis north of Wadi Disha. The cliffs and rock formations are pretty spectacular and the camping spot was serene. It's straightforward to follow. I was close to the end of the wadi in terms of easy hiking but it loks as though a right turn at the camping spot leads to a wadi from whiyh it would be possible to link up with other wadis and possibly get to the end point of Wadi Disha and then circle back through Disha to the car. That would take at least 2 days though so good luck!
The night sky was one of the best I've seen in SA as it is a remote spot and far from any light pollution (I guess the nearest settlement is at the mouth of Wadi Disha, about 15 KM away).
