Description

We'll leave Muscat towards Misfat Al Abriyeen, this picturesque village lies on a steep slope at the foot of Jebel Shams and consists of old homes and narrow streets, it has a falaj system for many orchards, date palms, and vegetables. It's worth spending some time walking around the village. From there we drive towards Wadi Ghul the village of Wadi Ghul 2000 years old located at the foot of Mountain Ghul and can be seen on your way to Jabal Shams, it has been abandoned by its inhabitants and no one remained in, it has been built of solid stones. From there we drive into Wadi Al Nakhar its beautiful sites, a spectacular view which derives its name from the local word (necrosis), which means the process of rock sculpture «erosion» as the water of this valley formed during the time periods. Wadi Al Nakhar is one of the deepest valleys in Oman because of its geographical characteristics, the great gap in Jabal Shams is considered to be the most important source of water since its large opening leads to valleys and reefs that form the valley of Al Nakhar. From there we drive up the Mountain. This mountain road drives up to the Jebel Shams Mountain (The Grand Canyon of Oman) 3009 Meters it's one of the most adventurous Mountains in Oman, offering exciting off-road experiences and fantastic views, we reach the canyon view which is 2000 meters we stop there and we enjoy the view and photo.
