Explore the Jordan Valley
Hike the desert canyons north of Jericho. Relax in the peace and
quiet of our gardens. Learn about the culture, politics, and
ecology of this special place.
Welcome to the new Water and Environmental Development Organization/Friends
of the Earth eco-tourism center at Auja.
Get off the Beaten Track
Join our expert local guides to hike some of the most remote and beautiful
valleys in Palestine. We have walks for all levels of ability. Learn about the
conflict over water and the degradation of the River Jordan and Dead Sea with
our ‘Political Ecology’ tours. Break bread and talk with some of the Bedouin and
farming families who call the valley home. Or explore sacred sites and
archaeological ruins dating back 10,000 years.

Guesthouse & Restaurant
With its scenic roof-terrace and shady gardens, the new Auja guesthouse makes
a great place to relax with friends and family. We offer comfortable
accommodation in private rooms with en suite facilities, or in larger, dormitory-
style rooms. We are proud of our restaurant, which offers local, seasonal
Palestinian home cooking prepared by ladies from Auja village.
Conferences and Retreats
The Auja Eco-Center also offers an alternative space for meetings, conferences,
and retreats. We have a fully equipped meeting room and Wi-Fi throughout. We’re
happy to cater for one-day meetings or multi-day retreats, for groups of up to 20
people.
