Feynan Lodge has been developed by Jordan’s Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature and opened in the summer of 2005.
It is set among the arid mountains of Wadi Feynan on the western boarder of Dana Nature Reserve.
This is right at the bottom of the Dana reserve and is usually reached by a five-hour walk down through the gorge of Wadi Dana to the desert floor at Feynan. It can also be reached by a 4x4 road if you don’t fancy the walk.

Allgemeine Informationen über das Hotel
The lodge, also known as the Wilderness Lodge, has been set up as a cool, atmospheric retreat for tourists wishing to explore this undiscovered and archaeologically rich area of Jordan.
It is an interesting piece of architecture built entirely of local materials and designed by a local architect. The unique arabesque desert design uses traditional adobe methods and lends a romantic feel to this remote location.
The RSCN have been keen to incorporate some eco-friendly technologies, which include solar power by day and candle light at night. The staff are all from the local Bedouin community which makes it an important asset to this remote area.
It is a great place to stay and can form the base for longer explorations and treks into the area.
The bumpy 4x4 drive is from the village of Qurayqura and is an 8km ride from the nearest paved road
22 en-suite rooms, solar-powered hot water, roof terrace, lounge and dining room. There is electricity from solar panels but there are no outlets in the rooms. Guests wishing to recharge cameras, laptops, or cell phones are welcome to do so at Reception.
