Introduction[edit]
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[edit]
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.
Descent[edit]
Walk up the gravel bed of the wide gorge to the hot water and a short waterfall through boulders.
Exit[edit]
Retrace your steps.
