The Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature runs guided ecology tours through the Dana Biosphere Reserve — the four climate zones, the conservation history, the species that came back. Best for travellers who want depth on the why behind the reserve.
1,250 metres above sea level on a Dana ridge, the RSCN-managed Rummana campground gives you Bortle-2 dark skies, cooler nights than Wadi Rum, and the tents are on platforms with proper mattresses. Open April–October.
On the rim of the Dana valley sits a stone village that has been continuously occupied for 500 years. Below it: 308 km² of nature reserve descending from 1,600 m to 50 m below sea level — four climate zones in 30 km.
