Our Full-Day Hike Around Jabal Shams
Experience the awe-inspiring beauty of Jabal Shams, the "mountain of the sun," on an exhilarating hiking adventure that uncovers the highest peak in the Arabian Peninsula, rising majestically to 3,004 meters above sea level.
Delve into the heart of this stunning region, exploring diverse trails like the 'Rim Walk' (route W6A) and the 'Abandoned Village Walk' (route W6), each offering its own unique vistas and experiences. For the intrepid adventurer, tackle the famed 'Summit Walk' (route W4), beginning at the village of As Sab (1,800 m), ascending to 2,700 m, and ultimately reaching the pinnacle at 2,997 m. As you might well imagine, the views you'll encounter along this journey are nothing short of unforgettable.
As you traverse these rugged landscapes, you'll be captivated by the unique rock formations sculpted by various forms of erosion, with the An Nakhr Balcony, a deep chasm near the peak, standing out as one of the most enchanting places to visit in Oman.
