This is your last chance to prepare for Jabal Shams happening in 2 more weeks!
The Stairway -Right Bank trek has been made much safer with a marked trail and even some railings along the side. This is still a 6-7 hour trek with lots of inclines, incredible views and an amazing challenge.
This is a long drive and you will be very tired after the trek. For this reason, the trek includes transportation from Dubai, pick up point at Times Square Mall leaving at 4:30 am. We are preparing for Shams in every way!
Early wake ups are a regular part of the routine from now until summer, and Shams is no different.! Get ready for the same when you climb Shams in a few weeks! We will start the hardest part of the ascent in the early morning hours, and the descent when its hotter to make it a little easier. This trek is not for beginners! Be warned! Hiking boots, water bladder and carrying 5 liters of water is essential. You will need to practice carrying this for Shams as well.
You should pack snacks that you know work for you, as you will need these on Shams too! You need to know how best to refuel your own body, carbs, beef jerky or chocolate. We cannot make snacks that will work for everyone on a challenging hike so you need to come prepared.
