Climb up the rocky wadi to reach a dramatic summit climb and incredible 360 degree view of the mountains and the Indian Ocean. This hike is just 1 hour 15 minutes from central Dubai.
Wadi Seham hike is a gutbuster of a hill 1.5 hours through some scrambling but shaded rocks on a newly improved trail. Its still entirely uphill for the first 1.5 hours so be prepared to be breathing and working hard. We recommend that you complete one hike in the last few weeks prior to this one to ensure you are adjusted to the heat. We start, as usual, to avoid the heat. After reaching the top, its all downhill but is still very exposed to the elements.
Hiking boots are recommended but not required as the trail has been dramatically improved to make it easier footing.
We provide backpacks with the required water and a snack as part of your hiking fees.
Location & Car Access: 1 hour 15 minutes from Dubai. We will park on the side of the road with no off road access required.
Distance & Duration of the Hike: Approximately 9KM loop trail with 660 of elevation gain over the entire trek, this will take about 3 hours to complete the circuit.
