HM Queen Rania Al Abdullah paid a visit to Irbid's village of Birgesh on Monday September 13th, where she met a group of Jordan Trail service workers and hiked through Birgesh Forest.
Her Majesty met with Mohammad and Maysoon Dweikat, homestay owners who offer accommodation to trail hikers travelling through Birgesh, after being welcomed by Jordan Trail Association (JTA) CEO Bashir Daoud. Additionally, she visited with other service providers who aid travelers going through the northern portions of the trail.
For example, Queen Rania expressed her admiration for the Jordan Trail's accomplishments during their meeting at their homestay, it has had a good impact on the lives of service providers and trail users. Jordan Trail achieves numerous goals at once, says the Queen, especially if the region delivers high-quality services and is sustainably developed.
Because of worldwide mobility restrictions, Her Majesty said, local tourism has grown in spite of pandemic-related lockdowns. "The previous two years have brought Jordanians closer together and given everyone an opportunity to discover the country's beauty and diversity," she said.
Commending the efforts of organizations such as Jordan Trail, Queen Rania noted that such activities encourage Jordanians to stay in Jordan for weekends and vacations instead of going abroad, noting the rise of positive competition among service providers attracting tourists through mobile applications or by teaching them new skills.
A few minutes after the meeting, Her Majesty took a stroll through Birgesh Forest, where she stopped at Jordan Trail-curated tourism experiences such as mobile photography and art installations.
According to the Jordan Trail Association (JTA), which was founded in 2015 by a group of adventurers, it is responsible for preserving and to keep the trail maintained and accessible to tourists, the Jordan Trail Association was formed in 2015 by a group of adventurers. Visitors and hikers will be able to learn about the trail's 8 districts by purchasing the Jordan Trail Pass in November 2020. An official lifetime trail pass and hiking journal are both included in the pass.
Adopt a Route is a new project of the JTA, which allows people and corporations to adopt small parts or entire areas of the trail in exchange for financial support of the JTA's efforts to maintain and develop the trail system.
