Mountain safaris are exciting journeys that travelers love to take on their trip to any destination in the world. As very few countries have such exceptional landscapes, it is not always possible to have this ticked off your travel checklist. But Khasab Musandam offers a beautiful sight and experience with its incredible mountain range that is undoubtedly a place to see. Mentioned below is a list of reasons that makes this mountain safari truly one of a kind and a sight to behold.
1. True Meaning
Jebel Al Harim is one of the highest peaks in the entire Peninsula. At 2,087 meters above sea level, it stands tall enough to view the whole Hajar mountain range from its peak. A wonderful fact is that this range is also known as the “Mountains of Women” to commemorate and appreciate women’s greatness. Any picture taken from this height will surely add to the collection of beautiful creations that will quench the thirst of wanderlusts around the world.
2. Exploration
On your journey to explore the fine mountain ranges of Musandam, you can tour the unique Bedouin Village of Sayh where you can witness the Omani culture and heritage. This small village is situated on a plateau at a height of 1100 meters above sea level and is one of the most peaceful settings you can find on the safari.
Another incredible point in the journey is at Khor Najd which is a famous photo spot that offers the view of the Indian Ocean alongside that of the mighty mountain ranges. Facing the east, you can satisfy the nature lover within you and enjoy the picturesque scene where the sky, land, and ocean meets.
3. Fossil Exploration
The distinct activity that you will remember for years to come is the opportunity to explore rocks and fossils that are unique to Musandam. There are many well-preserved fossils of clams, fishes and ancient aquatic animals, the majority of which are also extinct today. You can travel back in time and experience the unique diversity of species that existed many centuries ago on earth.
4. Activities
You can also dive into the blue waters of the Indian Ocean that surround the Jebel Al Harim range and swim in the beautiful sea. Snorkeling is also a provision given to travelers to view the marine life that surrounds the grand mountain ranges.
