About
Brze činjenice: Jagged sandstone ridges rise above turquoise wadis, offering more than 50 kilometers of marked trails that challenge both hikers and mountain bikers.
Istaknuto: Golden light pours into narrow gullies at dawn, turning natural rock pools into glassy mirrors that reflect serrated ridgelines and the scent of sun-warmed stone. A local trail tradition asks groups to add a single colored bead to a communal rope at the 3.8-kilometer junction, the rope now holding over 1,200 beads where each color marks a different trail challenge.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy trail shoes and breathable layers for sudden temperature swings.
- Park at Hatta Dam for sunrise shots and climb nearby ridgelines for dramatic sunset silhouettes.
- Avoid weekends and public holidays by visiting on a weekday morning to dodge crowds.
- Carry at least 1.5 liters of water per person, sunscreen, and a small first-aid kit; shade is limited on exposed ridges.
