IMG_0832 Picture 012

Jebel Shams (Mountain of the Sun) is a mountain located a 3 hr drive from Muscat in Northeastern Oman, north of the town of Al Hamra. It is the highest peak of Oman and part of the Al Hajar Mountain range. Its beautiful landscape and year-round pleasant temperature make it worth the trip!

After reaching the highest lookout point you will be able to see the so-called “Grand Canyon of Oman” in all its glory. From a nearby village we will start our 3hr walk on an old donkey trail along the canyon. Depending on your fitness level, we can walk further to an old and abandoned cave village.
