Snake Canyon is not your regular day hike. You will be wet the entire 5 hours.

The tour allows spectacular views of the Grand Canyon.
Roundtrip Hiking: Approx. 3-3.5 Hours (3.5 km) Grade 1
We proceed to Al Hamra. A bit of a funny look on these, but very cosy. This is Oman’s oldest house and building that can be dated back over 400 years. The houses often have two floors where the roof is made of beams from the palm trees and covered with clay and straw. And finally to the village of Misfah which is up in the mountains at the foot of the Al Hajar mountain range. From here, we set off on a small village walk. Finally we drive to Nizwa.

Visit
Nizwa Fort which was built in 1668 AD by
Imam Sultan Bin Saif Al Ya'rubi and today is Nizwa’s main attraction. Next to it is
the local Souq in Nizwa which is renowned for its hand-carved “Khanjars” (daggers), delicious dates, pottery and ornamental silver jewellery. You are sure to find much to tempt you as you explore the meandering paths and myriad stalls of the souk. Then we continue to
Wadi Bani Khalid, for an easy walk along the riverbed with ample time to cool down in the crystal clear waters of
the rock pools. It is the best-known wadi of the Sharqiyah region. Its stream mountains a constant flow of water throughout the year. Large pools of water and boulders are scattered along the course of the wadi. And finally we drive to
Sharqiyah Sands or formerly called “Wahiba Sands”. Where the dunes are 60-80 meters high and have been there for thousands of years. The Bedouins are masters at adapting to this barren environment and they are skilled weavers. They are also well known for their enormous hospitality and of course we are invited to coffee and dates.
Overnight at Desert Rose Camp- Standard Room on HB basis (Lunch at local restaurant)
08:30 AM- Pick up time.
Start the trip to Wadi Nam. Continue to Majlis Al Jinn Cave via Ibra. Out of sight in the heart of brown hills located at the foothills of the eastern Al Hajar Mountains hides one of the greatest and most beautiful natural wonders. It is the Majlis Al Jinn Cave, or Salma Plateau as it is commonly known, and is considered one of the largest underground caves in the world. Then we continue until we reach Wadi Tiwi, It is spread over an area of 36 kilometers (22.37 miles) at the foot of the mountain village of Mibam. It is a fertile wadi that meanders through a number of agricultural villages which grow dates and bananas overlooking the majestic mountains. You can also see the valley below, and the azure waters of the sea from some elevated locations. Then we continue towards Wadi Shab, literally means “Ravine between the cliffs”, The green pools and abundant shade give Wadi shab an almost ethereal aura. This Wadi is reachable by a short boat transfer to the other end and a short distance mild trekking approximately 40 mins. The pathway is rocky therefore please bring sturdy shoes. After that we drive towards the resort.
Overnight at Tiwi Sunrise- Standard Room on HB basis (Lunch at local restaurant)
