Water, a zipline, and a route the whole family can walk.
Four kilometres near Umm Al-Rasas with a zipline strung across the valley partway through. The minimum age is five, which makes this the one route on the list a family can genuinely do together — the water is shallow for most of the walk and the pace is set by the slowest person, not the fittest.
