From the site, there is a splendid view of the Dead Sea and the mountains of the Judean Desert. It is not difficult to imagine how Moses looked upon the Promised Land from the same point, knowing he would never reach it.

The city of Kerak was the capital of Moab and the castle dominates the skyline. The fortress offers an impressive insight into the architectural and military skills of the Crusaders. Lunch en route.
