Buraimi – 2-Day Adventure – Oman

Embark on a 2-day trip to visit beautiful Buraimi, Oman, the land of water canyons and rolling hills!

On this trip just across the UAE border, we will visit some mineral milky pools and a water-canyon.Some of the region's more adventurous hikes lie on the other side of the Al Ain/Oman border, within the town of Buraimi Oman. The plains that run south of the Al Hajar Mountain foothills have high water-table levels due to rainwater. Trapped in the gravel plains, this area is named the ardh al-jaww (the open flat land) as it is constantly fed runoff from the Hajars.

Along with canyoning you will have the opportunity to explore caverns and spectacular rock formations naturally caused by its flowing waterways. Water levels encountered during the hike depend on yearly rainfall, so there are possibilities of the canyons containing low water-levels. After some deep water swimming and climbing, you will visit a special oasis that feeds the date trees and flows into the beautiful clear pools in the canyons below. Many of these treks include water pools, which are usually located near date farms, as the rainwater is used to sustain the farms all year round. Come join us for a wet and wild day-trip from the UAE.
