Ghaf Summit: Beginner Plus! Climb to the Highest Point in UAE + PURO Lunch and Bus from Dubai

  • Jabal Jais Ras Al-Khaimah, Ras al Khaimah United Arab Emirates (map)

Escape on a Friday to head up to Jabal Jais! Skip the 2.5 hour drive on your own and take the van with everyone to the top! Hike the steep hill on an excellent trail to reach the highest point in the UAE with incredible views. Its chilly up here, while we watch the views in PURO we will need to wear sweatshirts. A beginner trail but with a steep and long ascent for a great workout. Lunch is not included, but the reservation to PURO IS (that’s essential, you cannot just walk in on your own) and the bus is also included. The hike is not really great for unfit beginner hikers, as the hill is somewhat daunting to climb for the first 45 minutes! But, if you are new to hiking. but not your. fitness routine, you will really enjoy the challenge of this hike, the incredible scenery and the whole event style of this hike!
