Description
7 summits / al bidya trail
Beginner
-
This 7-summits/Al Bidya hike is a combination of two entry-level hikes, ideal for beginners and families with children.
The seven summits trail begins at the Big Flag in Fujairah then continues across seven summits or forts, representing the seven Emirates that make up the UAE. You will finish the loop where you started at the beautiful gardens, an ideal spot for a quick snack after the hike.
Following the 7-Summits, we will continue to the Al Bidyah Mosque trail. The trail starts off with a climb to a high point which offers beautiful coastal views, before following the ridge all the way to the Al Bidyah mosque which is the oldest mosque in the UAE. After a quick tour around the mosque, we will retrace our steps to the end of the trail.
