This half-day
tour takes us to the 200 year old village of Hatta -
which is located in the rough Hajar Mountains. After
an early departure by 4X4 vehicles, we proceed along
the road until we reach the mountains. There you will
have an adventurous drive through the rocky landscape.
An hour or so of rough driving can be rewarded by scenes
of great and unexpected beauty as we pass big and small
Wadis and we cross lush landscape, which is surrounding
the small settlements and villages deep in the mountains.
We will explore the Wadis and dry river beds, which
are flooded after winter rains from the Hajar Mountains.
A swim in one of those Wadis will give you a nice refreshment
in the winter month. Later you can take a visit to the
restored 16th century Hatta Fort, before getting your
lunch. On the way back to Dubai we stop at one of those
popular street markets, where you can find local carpets
and potteries.
