New trekking routes - the descent into the canyon Dixam

Canyon in SocotraThis season we have worked for some new hiking trails.

One of them - on foot descent into the canyon Dixam. The descent starts from the observation deck and takes about 3 hours. At this time the car down into the canyon on the road.

The first part of the route runs along traverse the gorge for a good straight path, then begins the descent into the canyon itself, which is not complicated, but requires some physical training and experience hiking on rough terrain.

After descending into the canyon you can swim in a freshwater pool. From here to the camping place - about 30 minutes.

    As far back as in Alexander of Maсedon’s times Socotra supplied a great deal of not only frankincense and myrrh, but also Dragon’s blood, which was rubbed in by gladiators before combats for quick wound healing.
