Experiences
Grouped by the experience rather than by the administrative border. Everything free is marked as such, and every price is a starting point.
Turquoise water held between bare Hajar rock, ninety minutes from the skyline. Go early: the wind picks up after eleven.
2.83 kilometres off the summit of Jebel Jais, face-down, at up to 150 km/h. Certified as the longest in the world.
A sealed switchback road climbing towards 1,934 metres, with viewing decks near the summit. Take a jacket; it is genuinely cold up there in winter.
The country's first mountain protected area: freshwater pools, waterfalls after rain, and Arabian tahr on the cliffs above.
