From Wadi Musa, take the road to 'little Petra', you cross the village where the bedouins have been 'settled'. Follow the road to the north a few kilometers, you ll reach a wide valey, the flyable place is on the mountain on your left, facing west. a road climbs up on this mountain. If you follow it to the top, then take right at the crossroad (direction south), you ll find a not so good track (4x4 recommended) who will take you to the summit of the hill. If you re okay for a little walk throught rocks, you can stop your car at the middle on the way up the hill, after the turns, when the road get straight, and climb up to the summit by foot (20 to 30 min maximum to reach the top) no need to Climb Road to top now.
