An wonderful family excursion that expertly combined natural beauty, historical interest, and contemporary luxury was our journey to Jebel Hafeet Tour Package with Captain Dunes. Jebel Hafeet, Abu Dhabi's tallest mountain, is located on the UAE-OMA border and attracts sightseers of all ages with its breathtaking panoramas and plenty of activities.
An Enchanting Climb: Here We Start
The first leg of our excursion was a scenic drive up the Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road, which is famous for the sixty curves it winds through over the course of seven and a half miles. The climb set the stage for the next adventures with its stunning vistas of the desert terrain. Our knowledgeable guide filled us details on the mountain's geological importance and its location within the Hajar range, and Captain Dunes made sure the journey was both pleasant and educational.
Beehive Tombs: A Time Travel Adventure
The Beehive Tombs are an outstanding archeological site located in the slopes of Jebel Hafeet. These domal buildings, built from piled and edged natural stones, date back 5,000 years to the Hafit Period, which occurred between 3200 and 2700 BC. Bones and copper objects found in certain graves provide a direct link to long-vanished cultures. Our comprehension of the historical background and importance of the place was enhanced by the informed local guide that Captain Dunes arranged to join us.
The Verdant Sanctuary of Mubazzarah
At the foot of Jebel Hafeet, we found a verdant park called Green Mubazzarah, which we explored after descending the mountain. A tranquil lake, lush meadows, and natural hot springs make this a picture-perfect place for families to unwind. The parents could relax with a swim in the warm waters, while the kids had a blast on the playgrounds. A peaceful lunch break on the park's clean, well-kept grounds was just what the doctor ordered.
An Insight into Conventional Farming in the Al Ain Oasis
After there, we went on to the Al Ain Oasis, which is a falaj irrigation site and a UNESCO World Heritage site. We learned about the clever water management practices that have allowed agriculture to thrive in this dry area for thousands of years as we walked down the shaded walkways adorned with date palms. An interesting history of the oasis and its function in the town was recounted by Captain Dunes's guide.
Adventure is Waiting for You in Jebel Hafeet Desert Park
In the midst of breathtaking scenery, visitors may partake in a variety of activities at Jebel Hafeet Desert Park, which combines history with adventure. Archaeological artifacts, camel and horseback rides, and off-road ATV adventures are all part of the nine-kilometer park. Taking a guided camel ride as a family was an exciting and instructive adventure that gave us a new appreciation for the desert's natural splendor.
A Heaven on Earth Experience at the Mercure Grand Jebel Hafeet
A stay at the Mercure Grand Jebel Hafeet Hotel, situated close to the peak of the mountain, had been planned by Captain Dunes for us to end our day. Sunset views over Al Ain's expansive cityscape were unmatched from the hotel's rooftop observation deck. The ideal way to round off our vacation was with the blend of contemporary comforts and the natural beauty of the mountain.
