Feynan wild camp

Hospitality

The host was amazing and great price!

Unforgettable experience in the camp site. Staff are nice and helpful. Dinner is excellent. The water of the shower is cold, but we didn't expect having a chance to shower originally.

Very friendly host, great food, stunning star view from the no-roof dining place. Highly recommandable , also when traveling with young kids.

Good food, good sleep, helpfull people

This place is crazy. But honestly one of the best experiences I had in Jordan. Got a little lost trying to locate it after a long hike, but managed to find it ok! Hosts were super lovely and accommodating, with lovely home cooked food. The camp is really basic, but has clean toilets and showers and everything you need, but it is a wild camp, so don’t expect much. Sleeping under the stars was a highlight and absolutely surreal. If you decide to stay here (which you should), definitely just lean into the experience. It’ll be worth it.

Mohammad D. is a fantastic host. This is a relatively new operation that unfortunately opened right as the Gaza/Israeli war was starting which has hurt business and stalled the property's development. It is in a good location for hikers looking to do Wadi Ghuweir. FWC is a very good option for the value-conscious traveler as it is substantially cheaper than the Feynan Eco Lodge. Also this is a very quiet and remote area. If you are looking to get-away from it all, Feynan Wild Camp is a good place to go!

This is a relatively new camp and needs more development to be on par with some of the other wild camps in Jordan.

Very special and authentic experience in the rural area of the Dana reserve. Mohammed and his friends do everything to make your stay comfortable and special. We took the beautiful Dana trail starting behind the tower Hotel in Dana village until Feynan ecolodge (4h, fast to normal walking pace, little breaks) where Mohammed picked us up by jeep for the last remaining 5 km to the camp. During the dana trail you cross various bedouin villages where people offered us tea. At the camp we got served a delicious home cooked meal. The next morning after a traditional bedouin breakfast we took the stunning Wadi Ghwer trail back, 5h (attention, no signal). Mohammed kindly arranged transport for us back to Dana, around 1h drive. The camp is rather basic and there is limited electricity (small solar powered handheld batteries). So bring a power bank to be safe. During our stay beginning of April 2024 there were a lot of mosquitoes which apparently happens this year for the first time and is very unusual. So we strongly advise to bring mosquito repellent or ask Mohammed if the mosquitos are still around! Usually, when there are no mosquitos, a highlight is to sleep under the stars as you can easily take the beds outside. At the camp, they are constantly improving the facilities so better ask Mohammed before you go about the current state of the amenities.

The location is unique and like nothing ever experienced. The hosts Mohammed and Faoras were extremely helpful, kind and caring for us as a family. They came collecting us by the end of the trail so our little ones (and adults) didn't have to walk the remaining 5 km through the Feynan valley - completely unexpected but so appreciated by us all. The food is the best we have had so far in Jordan - Grown in the area and full of taste and love. All in all an amazing experience for us that we will never forget. We hope to get the possibility of returning.

The location of the camp is beautiful, it is very quiet and calm. We hiked from Dana via de Wadi Dana trail and stayed one night in the Feynan Wild Camp. The next day we hiked the Wadi Ghuweir trail. The Wild Camp was the ideal place for us to stay. The camp is very basic but you have everything you need. Mohammad invited us to have dinner with his family during the Ramadan, they welcomed us warmly and the food was great. We had a very good experience :)
