Summary: machine translated ➜

Hiking canyon with some rappels - to be avoided on the ascent. Ascent and descent roughly the same way in or next to the canyon. Access from above is also possible (see http://ropewiki.com/Mukhayris and http://wikimapia.org/35460660/de/Wadi-Mukheiris-Zugang), but only with a 4WD and difficult to find for those not familiar with the area. The tour should then take an estimated 6 hours in total on the descent.
