Making The Mountain Accessible to Everyone from Abu Dhabi
Our team meets you at Dhaid station and takes you on our bus to the Showka Mountains. From there, your WFR-certified guides lead a three-hike through the hills. Today’s trail is in the flat part at Modenyah Dam. The trails are quiet, and not crowded and mostly flat! We will do the short loop for 2.5 hours there are nearly no hills at all to worry about. We will likely run into some camels as well!
The hike is beginner level and we take it nice and slow.
After the hike, we serve a picnic lunch so you can relax and refuel in the mountain setting before our bus brings you back to Dhaid station in time for the evening train, getting you home for dinner with a full day of adventure behind you.
