Discover the Most Instagrammable Vibrant Valleys of the UAE: A Colorful and Challenging Adventure - For Beginners
Immerse yourself in one of the UAE’s most stunning landscapes with a hike through a vibrant valley renowned for its breathtaking color gradients and layered rock formations. This scenic trek is not just a visual treat but a physical test often underestimated in its difficulty. However, the trek is slow going - as we have to take time to use our whole bodies to navigate the rocks.
Hike Features:
Scenic Beauty: Surrounded by mountains adorned with an array of colors, the valley offers an unforgettable visual experience.
Demanding Terrain: The hike involves scrambling and climbing on rocks, requiring good fitness levels and balance. It’s a challenging journey that tests even seasoned hikers but it is NOT a fast paced or long distance hike! Total distance is between 6 and 7.5 KM total, yet it still takes a whole 3.5 hours.
Ideal Timing: We start early to catch the magic of sunrise within the wadi. This not only enhances the experience with spectacular light but also helps us avoid the heat of the sun, making the trek more enjoyable.
Can beginners manage this hike? Yes, as long as you have good balance, body awareness and full mobility, we will help you navigate the rocky terrain safely.
This hike is perfect for new adventurers looking to push their limits while soaking in some of the most spectacular natural beauty the UAE has to offer. Prepare to be challenged, amazed, and inspired.
