Al Hajar Mountain Range
Jebel Akhdar, (Green Mountain) is part of the Al Hajar Mountain range in Oman. It is the highest point in the whole of Oman and eastern Arabia.
The area is over 2 hours drive from Muscat and you have to drive through a passport control point in a 4 x 4. It’s worth the trip to explore the fascinating villages dotted around the area. The locals grow pomegranates, apricots, peaches and walnuts on the ancient terraces. These terraces are irrigated by an equally old but sophisticated irrigation system called falaj. The area is also famous for rose water extraction.
