Fujairah Adventures Al Dahir Hiking Trails

Great hiking route.
Changing terrain
Challenging parts of the journey add more adventure spirit .
Total 3h and almost 9km loop.
Wear proper hiking get, good shades, hat, water, snacks, take rest at any moment you like.
Better to start earlier , to finish due or a bit later sunset,
In the dark conditions- difficult to navigate the path, but in case-bring headlights.
Pretty happy with this one !
Enjoy!

It's not an easy hike for Freshers . The month of Jan and Feb is ideal. Because it rained a week ago(2023) there were little ponds. The weather was great . Don't go alone, there are marks and leads however trekking with group is fun .

Much enjoyable trail.
Visit in winter times, as its much cooler

You wont disappoint, awesome hiking trail.Either you can hike as a loop or come back on the same trail. You would highly recommend full loop hiking.

Wadi Dahir (Wadi Sulfur) is located in Fujairah, not far from Dibba. It’s a moderate level family friendly hike with the attraction of some beautiful sulfur pools and caves. It’s an 8km loop trail winding through mountains, hills and valleys. It will take you about 4 to 5h to complete, taking time for photos and lunch. I personally loved this trail.

You can park your car (Sedan accessible) about 150 meters just off the highway (literally!) (25.541830, 56.160513). I started the trail from the left side of the parking (you will see a farm on your right). It will take you to the wadi and very soon to the gorgeous water pools and there amazing colors.

After the first km, the wadi is almost dry (in rainy season you can expect more water content).
You can just walk for another 1km and come back if you are looking for an easy hike (total 4-5km), or proceed to do the full loop which will be 8+ km.

The train is well marked with cairns and some arrow marks at some points. At 6.2 km, the wadi is going to the right side but you have to deviate from it and go straight up instead (25.555580, 56.156951). After walking about 700m, you pass a beautiful small lake formed by a dam with trees coming out of the water. Walk over the dam (25.553033, 56.159257) and go down. You will see some stairs. This road will lead you to the starting point. There are some sulfur pools also towards the end of the trail. Many people come by car at the bride point to take a picture (25.541830, 56.160513).

All together it is a beautiful loop, and I would highly recommend it.

i always love nature and wadi dahir or also known as wadi sulphur is one of the pretty wadi in UAE.. and if could have alot of time i will explore more as this wadi connecting into another wadi ...

This is one of the most beautiful hiking tail in UAE.

Length - 8.5 km
Time Required - 4 to 5 hours
Route Type - Loop
Difficulty Level - Easy to Moderate.

No doubt this one of the most beautiful hiking trail in UAE. You know why because you don't just see the mountains but also running water.

The google pin correct. When you take exit, follow the route and you will reach to the parking lot. The trail is in loop. So can you go from right as well as left. Better you start from left (when you face mountain go to left). Because it is easy to find trail that way. As you go to left, you will find trail. It goes from the water ponds, you will find lots of running water. You may feel that it is dead end. But no, just go through the way from the wild grass and you will see the trail water will small small stone tower. Thanks to Fujairah Adventure who did this marking. Be careful as in way you will find a dip water pond. You need to cross that, and follow the small store tower markings.

Go through the river bed. You will find breathtaking mountain views, water ponds, small fishes, frogs and water snakes also. Go on and you will reach the same parking lot again at the end.

One of the most beautiful hidden gems in Fujairah with water ponds, streams and aquatic life even in peak summer. Presence of sulphur in water giving differnt colour to water ponds and rocks which is makes it worth exploring. Trail start from left side of parking with moderate level and not very difficult path to walk along with kids. Easy access from the main road and ample parking space. Highly recommended for trekkers, photographer and nature lovers.
