Fuhais (the Taamreh Farm Cliff): 16 bolted so far
all first clips are high.
 
Drive down to Fuhais village from Amman (Bacaloria School road) when reaching the big roundabout take a right, then first left, then second right where the globe with Jordan in the middle is. Down the valley and first left. Drive for aprox 1.5 km and the cliff will be infront of you, around 15m high maximum and 300m line of a solid lime stone cliff.
Most of these climbs are short with few hard moves on each making it a great place to practice, starting from 4+ to 7b, a decent variaty of levels. Also after some cleaning of the surrounding great potential for bouldering.

Fuhais(Hakims cliff)19 bolted routs so far
same road to the first cliffs but keep driving on the road for another 2km until it makes a turn to the right and then left in an open v shape, keep driving and before it goes down to the right you can see the cliffs on the mountain on your left. Park there, hike down and up top reach them. There is an easier aproach from the top but its private ground and we don't want to bother them since the cliffs are in their land.
