Hike Through Water Pools (Weekday Private Trips)
This is a fun and exciting canyoning activity (hiking in water) suitable for most fitness levels. It is the best way to beat the heat and make the best of these freshwater pools.
Learn to navigate on wet ground, jump and swim in freshwater pools, climb and scramble your way through a wadi. The activity is a mixture of canyoning and hiking so double the fun. Through this activity, you will get to experience one of the hidden gems of UAE.
To make it more exciting, we have designed a new return trail offers a breathtaking sunset view over the wadi. So if you have joined this hike before you will be surprised with the new upgrade!
• The difficulty level of these canyons is 2 out of 10.
• No rope skills or technical gear is required.
• Limited amount of swimming is involved. Depending on recent weather, the water is mostly waist deep - except for the major pool at the beginning of the hike.
• There is nothing technical about this hike.
• However, a good amount of fitness level is required.
4x4 or SUV is required to reach the starting point. Those who have regular sedans can leave their cars at the entrance of the wadi and ride with those who have 4x4s /SUV (just for the 10min wadi drive).
Strictly NO smoking once activity starts in the wadi.
