Why this trip

At over two thousand metres the Omani desert suddenly turns cool: Jabal Akhdar, the Green Mountain, is an answer to the question of where to travel when you want to leave the expected behind. Rose terraces, villages at the edge of the abyss and an air that smells of stone carry this impression. The Hanging Terraces show how agriculture has been practised on the slope here for centuries, and a walk there is among the calmest things you can do in Oman. A house high above the canyon suits an occasion that needs stillness and far views.

In the Adventure Park, by contrast, the mountain can be experienced actively. October to March is considered a favourable time, and the temperatures are pleasant for hikes. If you want to stretch the arc further, combine the highlands with the fjord landscape of Musandam or green Salalah in the south. Because routes in the mountains need preparation, you discuss early with Once in a Lifetime how much time this mountain gets and which journey suits.
