Ridge Summit Night Hike, Highest Public Point in UAE - Saturday 15th of Aug
Starting at the top of Mount Jais to watch the sunset over the Arabian sea, we continue our push towards the Highest Public point in UAE.
The trip will start around sunset and we will continue our hike using our headlight so we can gaze at the city light from afar and enjoy cooler temperatures.
The route takes us on the newly established hiking route through the higher part of Mount Jais leading to the highest public point in UAE overlooking the seaside and the Northern side of Jebel Jais.
It is the perfect place to enjoy the outdoors at a higher altitude in cooler temperatures. Unwind, relax and enjoy a good company on a well-established route made for ease and a good warm-up during these times.
