Getting there & away
Ajlun is 73km northwest of Amman, and 22km northwest of Jerash. The castle can be clearly seen from most places in the area. If you're driving or walking, take the signposted road (Al-Qala'a St) heading west at the main roundabout in the centre of Ajlun.
From the centre of Ajlun, minibuses travel regularly to Jerash (300 fils, 30 minutes along a scenic road) and Irbid (320 fils, 45 minutes). From Amman (500 fils, two hours), minibuses leave a few times a day from the Abdali bus station; an early start will let you see Ajlun and Jerash in one day, returning to the capital late in the afternoon.
