One of the highlights of my holiday in Oman. Amazing views across the mountain range and canyons. Nature at its best. Slowly being developed as a tourist destination. Some of the access roads require 4×4 vehicles.

It was a long drive. Once we reached the place, we felt it was a worthy drive, would love to visit again.

The Jebel Akhdar is a high plateau at about 2000 meters that mostly falls very steeply to rugged wadis, here you can choose from many hiking routes and enjoy a wonderful mountain landscape. We were picked up at the airport by an Ananatara hotel shuttle (large V8 van, very friendly and safe driver), who took us comfortably over the motorway, past many small villages with beautifully designed houses, then through plateaus and finally towards Jebel Akhdar brought. At the foot of this mountain there is a police checkpoint where the cars are checked for 4WD suitability, since normal vehicles are not allowed on these roads - which we found to be correct and important in retrospect - vehicles that do not meet these requirements are returned. The streets are very wide, winding, but sometimes very narrow and steep, but very well secured with concrete guard rails. One experiences many changing impressions on this trip and always has a wonderful view of the different mountain formations and colors of this mountain. The Anantara hotel complex can be seen from afar from a plateau, it looks like an Arab fort and was built directly on a steep rock (here you can climb great). Everywhere you have a great view of the canyons and the surrounding mountain landscape. A visit or hike to the "Three Villages", which are close to the hotel complex, is really recommended, as you are very close to nature here, and sturdy shoes are not a disadvantage.
