Bedouin Roads is a specialist Jordanian adventure and guiding business with over 15 years experience, it is run by a Bedouin family with climbing expertise that spans generations.
Not only do they know the landscape and the climate intimately, they will show you the best climbs, the most breath-taking views, how to be resourceful in remote environments and offer you a life-changing insight into their incredible culture and customs.
Hotel Bygdin is steeped in history.
It was built in 1897 and has been renovated a number of times, including after being used as an officer's quarters during the war in 1942. German and Austrian troops were stationed in the mountains there to train in Arctic warfare.
​
Today the hotel is owned by Tor Oxhovd who stopped by for a coffee and a waffle and realised the magic of the location and the possibilities for adventure.
The hotel is perfectly located for winter and summer activities; from fjellski to husky sledding, snow-shoeing to ski-kiting, 'via Ferrata' and kayaking on the Bygdin lake. The hotel has its own guides and equipment and will even chainsaw a hole in the frozen lake for early morning dips when we arrive.
