During the journey you will be able to see fossils dating back several million years. We will visit the Bedouin village of Sayh, situated at 1100 meters higher than water level during the journey. Bedouin village of Sayh is a small and peaceful village where you can treasure the beauty of Musandam on the plateau of the mountain. Our journey takes us to Khawr Najid, a stunning sea view point overlooking the Indian Ocean. At last we offers you many views like pre-historic graveyard and stone houses including the Bait al Qufl facing east.

Explore the Majestic Heights of Musandam on a Half-Day Mountain Safari

Whoop, two hours in a Landcruiser on a mountainous road should be enough for a half-day mountain Safari. These ruggedly remote hills charm in moments, and in a day, one might feel inclined to roll his sleeves up and explore. The tour is a four-wheel drive trip into the heart of the Musandam Peninsula-an unforgettable scenic plateau of towering cliffs, cliffs, bare rocky promontories, and wide valleys. The adventure then unfolds with the ascending land cruiser to Jebel Harim, said to be the highest peak in Musandam at 2,087 meters above sea level. It is sometimes called the “Mountain of Women” and it commands views over the entire expanse of the Hajar Mountains and surrounding landscapes. 

As the vehicle passes through the elevated trails in the mountains, an intrigue opportunity presents itself to view a long-gone geological time period containing fossils in its rock formations, landscape views and marine animals once alive in this dry land. One of the cultural events of this trip involves visiting Bedouin village Sayh situated at an elevation of above 1100 metres high. This tranquil plateau village offers an incredible and rare perspective of traditional mountain life among the natural and serene surroundings.

As the safari progresses down toward Khawr Najid, the excursion site provides mesmerizing sightings of the Indian Ocean. This place is photogenic, contrasting the barren highlands with the sparkling blue waters below. Along the route, sights include prehistoric necropolises, ancient stone houses, and Bait al Qufl, an ancient locked house that narrates the story of the region.

Within a few hours, this guided safari speaks the language of nature and heritage. For those who would like to go through the untamed beauty and cultural history of Musandam’s mountains, it is a perfect choice to consider.
