Ajloun Castle, a 12th-century Muslim fortress built by the Ayyubids, offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding area. The castle's strategic location made it an important defense against Crusader incursions. While some parts of the castle are accessible, wheelchair users may find it challenging due to the uneven terrain and stairs. Exploring the castle can be done independently, although a local guide can enrich the experience with historical context and insights. The site is open year-round, but it's best to visit during the spring or fall for pleasant weather. Expect to spend around 2-3 hours exploring the castle and its surroundings. Entrance fees are relatively low, making it an affordable cultural experience.
