Feynan Ecolodge

Deep in the heart of the mountainous Dana Biosphere Reserve, isolated from paved roads and electricity supplies, Feynan Ecolodge is set against a glorious desert landscape and has been hailed as one of the fifty top ecolodges in the world. An ideal destination for the active and adventurous, exciting experience abound at Feynan: hike over unspoiled terrain, visit local Bedouin encampments, canyon through the magnificent Wadi Ghawyr, mountain bike past ancient ruins, and descend into 4,000 year old copper mines by day. Then head back to the lodge for soothing tea, fireplace conversations and endless starry skies. Feynan Ecolodge has experienced Bedouin guides on hand to tailor your route and chefs ready to prepare a delicious packed lunch to enjoy on your way. The lodge provides an attractive simple standard of accommodation, and is powered by solar energy. At night the atmosphere is unique when the rooms and lodge are bathed in the light of a multitude of flickering candles. The 26 simple en suite rooms all have their own private terraces with pleasant views of the surrounding countryside. Food at Feynan Ecolodge is also memorable: here you may enjoy healthy delicious vegetarian dishes inspired by traditional Arab cuisine that combine fresh local produce in a delectable way. As part of its commitment to sustainability Feynan Ecolodge strives to acquire its produce and ingredients as much as possible from nearby farms. The bread served at the lodge is supplied by a Bedouin woman from the local community that bakes the flat bread (known as shraak in Arabic) fresh each day on a traditional half moon shaped oven or saj.
