Wadi Al Nakhr: Hike to Hidden Cave and Pools｜Oman

Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

Embark on a thrilling and rugged adventure through Wadi Al Nakhr, often referred to as the “Grand Canyon of Arabia.” Situated within the Al Hajar Mountains near Jebel Shams, Oman’s highest peak, this 1,000-meter-deep gorge offers a blend of dramatic scenery, climbing, and wild beauty.

Begin your hike through the canyon, which comprises Wadi Nakhr and Wadi Ghul. Although some refer to it as Wadi Ghul, the actual canyon is called Wadi Al Nakhr; Wadi Ghul is at the entrance to the canyon.

As you make your way through the canyon, enjoy the breathtaking views and the thrill of the rugged terrain. Reach a hidden cave and refreshing pools, where you can take a break and soak in the natural beauty of the surroundings.

The canyon is overlooked by the Balcony Walk, a much gentler hike, that we offer separately.
