Introduction

A short walk up a gorge from the Dead Sea Highway that reaches some hot pools and hot flowing water.

Google Maps has this drainage marked as "Wadi Attwan / Bani Hamida" which is likely incorrect. The next drainage north is likely as "Wadi Atoun".

Approach

Park on the west side of the Dead Sea Highway on the old pavement: 31.545760587181064, 35.5567736733641

Walk down into the wash then under the highway bridge.
