Mountain biking

Ruins of an ancient Nabathian city. Some reconstructed buildings with signs giving short background on each. Streets give the sense of the city's general outline. One could imagine life there thousands of years ago. I recommend reading a bit before, or during the visit. Wikipedia or other sources. Shivta shares history with other similar archeological excavations in Israel and Jordan.
