Itinerary
- Begin your tour in Al Hamra Village, a historic settlement that dates back over 400 years. This well-preserved mud-brick village offers a glimpse into traditional Omani life. Wander through its narrow alleyways, explore the old houses, and visit the Bait Al Safah Museumto learn about local customs, crafts, and daily life in ancient times. The village is surrounded by lush date palm plantations, creating a striking contrast with the rugged Hajar Mountains in the background.
- Next, head to Wadi Ghul, often referred to as the “Grand Canyon of Arabia.” This dramatic canyon is one of the deepest in the region, offering awe-inspiring views of towering cliffs and rugged terrain. Stop at the Balcony Walk, a thrilling trail that hugs the canyon walls and provides panoramic vistas of the valley below. Wadi Ghul is a paradise for hikers and photographers, with its raw, untouched beauty.
- Continue your adventure to Wadi Nakhr, a hidden gem nestled within the Hajar Mountains. This wadi is known for its stunning rock formations, crystal-clear pools, and lush vegetation. Take a leisurely walk along the wadi bed, or challenge yourself with a hike through its narrow gorges. The serene atmosphere and dramatic scenery make Wadi Nakhr a perfect spot for relaxation and exploration.
- Step into the picturesque village of Misfat Al Abryeen, a traditional mountain village perched on the edge of a cliff. Known for its terraced farms, ancient falaj (irrigation system), and stone houses, Misfat Al Abryeen is a living example of Omani heritage. Stroll through the village’s narrow pathways, interact with friendly locals, and enjoy the stunning views of the surrounding valleys and date plantations. Don’t forget to try some fresh dates or Omani coffee offered by the villagers.
- No tour of this region is complete without a visit to Jabal Shams, the “Mountain of the Sun” and the highest peak in Oman. Standing at over 3,000 meters, Jabal Shams offers breathtaking views of the canyon below, often compared to the Grand Canyon. Visit the Jabal Shams Summitor the Jabal Shams Viewpoint for unparalleled vistas. Adventure seekers can tackle the Balcony Walk, a thrilling trail that offers stunning views of the canyon and the abandoned village of Sab Bani Khamis.
