The hidden oasis is an explorer’s dream. Covering a distance of 9.76 km to reach the oasis at an elevation of ca 1000 meters, this hike truly is worth your while. It offers stunning views of the Hajar range, Jebel Jais and wadis.

This hike is also a great workout as you will experience 100-meter vertical stairs, Bushy Patches of vegetation, rocky terrain and the incredible wadis. The scenes are incredibly green during the winters.

We start at the Jebel Jais road. As we head down the trail, we will pass by farms and stunning landscapes to finally reach the hidden oasis. We will have a quick snack along the way and then head back to our bus. This trek is suitable for a beginner and expert alike.

SUMMIT VILLAGE EXTENSION

Starting from the lush greenery of the Hidden Oasis, the trail quickly transitions into a steep, rocky ascent as it climbs toward the village nestled near the summit. Hikers navigate a blend of narrow pathways, natural stone steps, and occasional boulder scrambles, making it a workout that requires stamina and sure-footedness.

Along the way, you'll pass impressive rock formations and enjoy expansive views over the surrounding valleys and mountains. The elevation gain is significant, so expect to feel the burn as you near the top. The journey culminates in the Top Village, a traditional mountain settlement with simple stone structures, where you can take in panoramic views and reflect on the oasis below. This hike is best suited for intermediate to advanced hikers looking for an immersive experience that combines natural beauty with a touch of local history.
