Jericho – Wadi Qelt – St. George’s Monastery – Bedouin camp

From Jericho, the Jerusalem Way leads through Wadi Qelt into the Judean Desert. Rock walls, springs, silence, and ancient monastic traditions shape this extraordinary section. Built into the gorge, St. George’s Monastery is a spiritual highlight on the historic route from the Jordan Valley to Jerusalem. After that, the red route line continues through the desert landscape to a Bedouin camp, where encounters and hospitality deepen the pilgrimage.
