Camel Treks
Camel Treks
A camel trek is hard to explain in words but we shall try.
Imagine quietness, crisp air and a panoramic view. Now imagine the same from the back of a
female camel ( why female – explanation to follow) , traveling in a convoy treading softly through the
wadis then climbing up through the mountains.
Our first camel treks started in 1987 when we decided, as opposed to the Bedouin, that our
camels should be females . The reason being that they are gentler, quieter, smarter, disciplined,
and a lot more friendly. They also “speak” a lot more but for this we forgive them. (By the way
the Ministry of Education has banned the use of male camels for school trips.)
We train our camels just by speaking to them and with a lot of patience even though there are
” other ways” we have found that our way is more effective in the long run and enables a better
relationship between camel and guide.
Our camels are trained and friendly. We also make sure they are looked after and fed with
a proper diet. After all they are our partners (they even all have female names)
There is no need for any previous riding experience. Our camels are stable, tall
and friendly and we designed their saddles for maximum comfort .
You are invited to choose one of our various treks. Please check the schedule for exact departure
times.
Our circular treks from the ranch are accompanied by a ranch trained guide. During the
trek he will tell you about the camels and the route you are riding
