Walking

From the center of Ibri, head south on Al-Madina Street (شارع المدينة) towards the main market area (سوق).

You will pass several local shops and cafes. Keep an eye out for signposts indicating Wadi Muqniyat. After 2 kilometers, you will reach a bus stop where you can ask locals for directions to the wadi. They may guide you to take a local taxi or suggest continuing on foot along the road.

If you prefer not to walk, you can take a local taxi from any central point in Ibri. Ask the taxi driver to take you to 'Wadi Muqniyat' or provide them with the address: '9VJF+39G، شارع مقنيات'. It should take about 15-20 minutes to reach your destination, depending on traffic. Make sure to confirm the fare before starting your ride.

Bicycle

For those who enjoy cycling, rent a bicycle from a local shop in Ibri. Start your journey by heading south on Al-Madina Street towards the main market. Continue to 23rd July Street and turn right.
