Service Description
Tue 13th December 08:00 - 14:00 Intermediate Wadi Hike - NOT for beginner This is one of the most famous hikes in Ras Al Khaimah. This hike involves not only hiking for 8km, (round trip), it also has plenty of scrambling over boulders, crawling along ledges, squeezing through boulder gaps, using pre fitted ropes to ascend steep walls and all with the famous 'Red Wall' in view, far in the distance as we progress along and up through the wadi. At the right time of year, after the rainfall, the usually dry water holes are full with water, creating wonderful water pools in the smooth water worn ledges, which add to the overall ambiance of the steep walled wadi and an addition feature to carefully navigate our way around.
