irst we have to thanks a lot to Muscat Advanced Tourism, and our guide Mr Hamdan . Jabal Al-Akhdar is part of the Hajar Mountains & it is located in Governorate of Dakhiliyah. The journey from Muscat to Al Jabal Al-Akhdar takes about two hours. Our guide have a four-wheel drive vehicle this only allow you to continue the road. .Spread across the mountain are many Omani villages. the people there have dug terraces in some parts of the mountain for growing crops. Jabal Al-Akhdar produces a variety of fruits and flowers, pomegranates, peaches, apricots, almonds, walnuts, roses that can not grow anywhere else in the Arabian Gulf, except Jabal Al-Akhdar as a result of unique weather. it is great for hiking & sightseeing because the height of Jabal Al-Akhdar around 3000 meters hope to all to visit with Muscat Advanced Tourism you really will keep a great memory.
Thanks a lot it’s our pleasure.
