Scramble on a ledge - crawl under an overhanging rock, climb up boulders, hike through the stunning Wadi Niqab in Ras al Khaimah. 5 hours trek.
Overview: One of the most MUST SEE spots in RAK! Known as the ‘Red Wall” on the border of Oman, if you are lucky you will find water at the end of the trail, otherwise it will be just as interesting a hike as you scramble crawl and climb your way through the ledge of the cliffs through Wadi Koob.
Trail Description: Not much elevation gain, this is all scrambling and bouldering with significant exposure to heights, narrow ledges and slippery cliffs! 5 hours and around 12 km with minimal elevation gain.
What to Know: • We recommend at least one recent hike to acclimatize to heat and some exposure to heights. • We start early to beat the midday sun.
Gear: Hiking boots with ankle support are essential. We provide a backpack with water and snack.
Small Groups: Maximum of 8 people per group
Transportation is available for this hike for an additional charge
