Hatta has designed completely new trails, complete with shaded shelters However, they are somewhat confusing for the average hiker, but this trail is doable for beginners and families with kids (6-7 years old).
This hike will have 2 groups, one will be much longer than the other. The intermediate group will head to the Hatta Sign and back on different trails, and the beginner hike will go through the back route closer to the mountain, but will still have a great hill to climb and amazing view at the top!
A 3 hour hike with a slower pace on great trails, up and over the mountain and meeting the Oryxes! Enjoy while you listen to birds and discover the mountains and foothills in the Hajjar mountains.
Hatta is 1.5 hours from Dubai, Suitable for good fitness levels and active children 8 years and older.

The trail will be as long or as short as the group can manage. We will walk on a bit of road, a little on trails. The rest of the trail has smaller hills, and shaded rest areas the whole way. Along the way, our guides will teach you about the flora, fauna and mountains, and give you lots of guidance in learning to become an independent hiker.
We will pass through some local farms on the flat section before we loop around the smaller hills then visit the ancient village and the mountain ridge.
This hike is a favorite for new hikers and offers a great bonding opportunity for families. It is a chance to experience hiking and the mountains without worrying about footing or their fitness.
Enjoy the walk along the ridge of two foothills and the unobstructed view of the Hatta Mountain Range while playing. The Hatta mountains are a unique part of the UAE, very different from other mountains.
