Oman’s Emerald Pool, Hike the Fresh Pools of the Grand Canyon

Get ready for an epic weekend like no other as we journey to the heart of Oman’s natural wonders! Nestled beneath the towering Jabal Shams, the highest peak in the Hajar Mountains, lies the breathtaking Wadi Al Nakhar Canyon – a majestic masterpiece with sheer walls rising over 1,500 meters.

🌄 Day 1:
We’ll kick off early from Dubai, traveling through scenic roads to the canyon’s edge. From there, rugged Omani 4x4s will transport us deep into this natural wonder. Start with a 4-hour guided hike along the spectacular balcony trail to a hidden natural pool – perfect for a refreshing swim and jaw-dropping photos.

As the sun sets, a hearty, candlelit Omani feast awaits at our authentic canyon guesthouse. Choose to sleep under a canopy of stars (bring your tent!) or stay indoors in a charming, rustic home where you’ll experience life as the Omanis did centuries ago. Gather around a bonfire for storytelling, stargazing, and a soulful performance of traditional Omani music by local elders.

🌟 Day 2:
After a traditional Omani breakfast, we’ll embark on an intermediate-level hike to the dazzling Emerald Pool and explore a hidden cave tucked within the canyon. Then, we’ll bid farewell to the canyon, hopping into 4x4s for our return to civilization.

But the adventure doesn’t end there! We’ll stop in the enchanting village of Misfat Al Abriyeen, where ancient palm farms, picturesque mountain views, and charming cafés offer the perfect finale to this unforgettable journey.
