- Misfah Al Abryeen - Departing from Muscat, the journey heads towards Misfat Al Abriyeen, a charming village nestled on a steep slope at the base of Jebel Shams. This village is characterized by its ancient homes and narrow streets, and it features a falaj system that irrigates numerous orchards, date palms, and vegetable gardens. It’s highly recommended to spend some time exploring the village on foot.
- Wadi Al Nakhr - The next destination is Wadi Ghul, a 2000-year-old village located at the base of Mountain Ghul, visible on the route to Jabal Shams. This village has been deserted by its residents and is constructed from solid stones.
Continuing the journey, the route leads into Wadi Nakhar, known for its stunning landscapes and breathtaking views. The name “Nakhar” is derived from a local term meaning “necrosis,” referring to the rock erosion process shaped by the valley’s waters over time.
Wadi Al Nakhar is among the deepest valleys in Oman due to its unique geographical features. The significant gap in Jabal Shams is a crucial water source, as its expansive opening channels water into the valleys and reefs that form Al Nakhar Valley.
- Jabal Shams - The journey then ascends the mountain road to Jebel Shams Mountain, known as the Grand Canyon of Oman, standing at 3009 meters. This mountain is one of Oman’s most thrilling destinations, offering exhilarating off-road adventures and breathtaking views. Upon reaching the canyon view at 2000 meters, there is a stop to enjoy the scenery and take photographs.
