A Mirage In The Mountain

About this activity

This hike starts from the Wadi (a dry waterway) just minutes from the hotel grounds. You can get an accurate picture of the natural wadi systems, admiring the various shrubs and shrubs in this fertile mountain landscape and the formations of the rocks. The hike ends near an impressive rock formation, which becomes a spectacular natural waterfall in the rainy season. Climb up to discover the abandoned village of Sarab (which is closest to the hotel), the original home of the local people. Some are closely associated with the hotel today. Go on an expedition, go into the houses and put yourself in the life of that time not so long ago. You can get on the gravel path to the main road leading to the hotel.

Location: Al-Jabel Al-Akhder Mountain ( 2 1/2 From Muscat)
