Journey Highlights
Jebel Shams is 240 km away, approximately a 3:30-hour drive from Muscat. About 35 minutes before reaching the summit, the road becomes off-road, and the hike begins with a 2-hour, 6 km walk to the hidden pool.
Following this, we will climb the 350-meter Via Ferrata, which is divided into three stages:
1. The first stage is 50 meters and difficult.
2. The second stage is moderate.
3. The final stage is easy.
After completing the climb, there is a 15-minute walk back to the car.
