A complete guide to Hatta: What to do, where to stay and how to get there

From adventures in the mountains to beekeeping farms, here's everything you need to know before visiting.

Hayley Skirka author image

Hatta has come a long way since Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, announced plans to transform the town into a major tourism destination in 2021.

An inland beach, lake and cable-driven mountain railway are coming, while an aerial adventure park opened in September. The Hollywood-style Hatta marker broke the Guinness World Record for the tallest landmark sign that same month.

The mountainous Dubai town is also an ideal camping site as the UAE welcomes its cooler months .

Hatta is an exclave of the emirate that sits on the border with Oman, and benefits from some fantastic natural scenery and a more laid-back pace of life than the UAE's big cities.

Less than a two-hour drive from Dubai, it’s a good pick for a weekend escape and close enough for a mini-daycation. In winter, Hatta is the go-to spot for hiking, biking, kayaking and adventure, while in summer it's worth a visit for its cooler climes.

And with several new projects in the pipeline, now is the time to go before Hatta becomes a bucket-list destination.

The Hatta Beach Project will create new investment opportunities for the region's private sector.

The Hatta Beach Project will create new investment opportunities for the region's private sector.

If you're planning a trip out east, here's everything you need to know before you go – from where to stay and what to do when you're there, to where to go for the best local food in town.

Is Hatta in Dubai?

Hatta's Hollywood-style sign that is visible from afar

Hatta is part of the Dubai emirate, but it is not located within the city’s main boundaries. Instead, it lies about 130 kilometres south-east of the city, high in the Hajar Mountains.

Formerly part of Oman, the town was given to Dubai around 1850 when the Omanis realised that they were no longer able to defend it against Buraimi tribes. These days, it's a popular spot for families living in Dubai to escape to in the summer thanks to its cooler temperatures. The town retains much of its Omani laid-back pace of life.

How to get there

Getting to Hatta involves a journey of about 90 minutes by car from Dubai and the Sharjah-Kalba route is typically the fastest. From Abu Dhabi, you're looking at a two-and-a-half-hour road trip.

If you’re coming by public transport, you'll need to get to Al Sabkha Bus Station in Dubai where you can hop on the E16 bus. The bus takes a little more than two hours to reach Hatta.

What's the weather like?

Because of its location in the mountains, Hatta’s climate is a few degrees cooler than central Dubai thanks to its higher altitude. While this doesn't make too much of a difference in summer, you will feel it's a little less humid.

In winter, it helps to remember that there's a temperature difference, especially if you're staying in one of the mountaintop locations where the evenings can feel quite cold – so don't forget to pack a sweater.

Where to stay in Hatta?

JA Hatta Fort Hotel

The Senses spa is a good place to relax and there's plenty of activities to keep the whole family happy, with everything from mini-golf, petanque and archery to air-gun shooting, a zip line and even a maze. There's also an indoor recreation centre with a pool table, air hockey, foosball and more.

Little ones will love the resident deer and fawns who live right beside the kids' covered play area. Picture opportunities await at the top of Hatta Fort Park, about 273 metres up, or in front of the mountain backdrop with the Hollywood-style Hatta sign in the background. The hotel is also dog-friendly, so you can bring your four-legged friends along, although this must be mentioned when booking your stay.

Sedr Trailers

Hatta Sedr Trailers each have their own decking area for mountainside lounging

If you're looking to really get away from it all, this is the place for you. Nestled high in the mountains, you can only get here by specially approved 4x4 vehicles operated by Sedr Trailers staff. They'll transport you and your luggage up into the mountains and help you get settled in your converted Airstream trailer.

The gleaming silver trailers sleep two adults and one child and come with a kitchen, dining area, bathroom and outdoor terraced area. There's a communal fire pit that the staff will light on a daily basis and a BBQ area if you want to grill your own food or there's an on-site food truck if you'd rather get take out.

Perfectly tranquil, the trailers are located by the banks of the bright blue Hatta Dam. Book a kayaking package if you want to explore the water or simply enjoy being by a lake and surrounded by mountains, this is what Hatta is all about.

What to see and do in Hatta

While there's plenty to see and do in Hatta year-round, keep in mind that it's a seasonal destination where things often close or scale back in the summer months. Hatta Wadi Hub and all related activities tend to close from May each year, and reopen in October.

Hatta Wadi Hub

Hatta Wadi Hub offers a range of activities including archery, axe-throwing, cycling, zorbing and more

If it's adventure you're after, Hatta Wadi Hub is a must-visit. This purpose-built facility is surrounded by mountains and offers a whole host of adventure and activities. Take your pick from downhill carting, zorbing , a human slingshot, axe throwing, archery, free-fall jumps, adventure rope courses, wall climbing or trampolining. The centre can also arrange kayaking and hiking trails in the nearby landscapes.

Among the new activities for the 2021 season is a 500-metre inflatable obstacle course (the region’s largest) and Rovers, a four-wheel off-road electric scooter experience, which allows guests to explore the rocky mountainous terrains in a new way.

Another addition this season is the introduction of e-bikes by Hatta Mountain Biking at Hatta Wadi Hub.

Paragliding

True adventure seekers can get set to strap in and take in the Hatta scenery from the air. Paragliding experiences are available during the winter season, with 15-minute flights taking participants over the rocky mountains. The experience of floating through the air via a parachute and seeing the world below your feet is one to remember. The activity is for anyone aged 18 or over, but younger children can also take part if they're accompanied by an adult.

Mountain biking

Hatta is one of the best places in the UAE for mountain bike trails

Hatta is one of the best spots in the country for exploring on two wheels. The Hatta Mountain Bike Trail Centre has developed around 50 kilometres of biking trails spanning a network of various terrains and distances. Colour-coded to reflect the trail's difficulty, beginners can start with the easy trails marked in green while experts will want to tackle the black routes.

Riding is free if you bring your own bike and the trail centre is open 24 hours a day, with free parking, so you can easily leave your car. If you want to hire a bike, or get some expert instruction, the team at Hatta Wadi Hub can help you out.

Here, you'll find more than 900 trees, lots of green open spaces, a beautiful mountain backdrop, children's play areas, a running track and pits with sheltered picnic tables. There's also a pretty walkway and lots of water features dotted throughout the park. Didn’t pack your picnic or need a coffee? Head to Al Yamm Cafe where you can sit outside and enjoy great vistas.

Hike through Hatta Mountain Conservation Area

Hatta Mountain Conservation area is a trekking spot with views of the Hatta Lake

Dubai's only mountain refuge for endangered animals and plants, this region has the largest population of the endangered Arabian tahr in the country. It's also a great hiking spot. Trek through the foothills of the mountains, climbing over rugged terrain. Stop to take a few pictures at Hatta Lake – a striking blue sheet of water amid the sandy-coloured surroundings. As you hike, keep an eye out for the elusive Arabian sand cat. Security clearance from the municipality is required to enter the reserve but the areas around the dams are open to the public.

Kayak on the dam

Hatta Dam offers kayaking, pedal boating and water boating activities

See Hatta from the water with a trip on Hatta Dam. Shockingly blue and surrounded by jagged mountain creeks, this is the ideal place for an afternoon of water-based fun. Hire a kayak, pedal boat or water bike and work up a sweat as you soar across the azure surface. Or book a tour boat with a driver who’ll fill you in on fascinating facts about the region. Even better, you can bring your pup along on the kayak with you. Check ahead if it's open or not, as the activity is seasonal.

Visit Hatta Heritage Village

The Hatta Heritage Village is popular with tourists who want to see the not too distant past of life in the Emirates. This restored traditional village is one of the oldest in the country, dating back to about the third century BC. Carefully reconstructed stone houses and water wells sit among two watchtowers, a traditional majlis and a fort. There’s also a nice collection of old photographs detailing traditional life in Hatta, a basket-weaving area and a museum space showcasing old tools and weapons. The Al Sharia palm tree farm next door has a great example of the ancient falaj irrigation system.

Find some vintage music

Vintage cassettes on sale in Hatta

Interestingly, Hatta seems to have a thriving vintage CD and cassette business. There’s more than a handful of tiny music stores in the town, all with faded window posters that are packed floor to ceiling with eclectic music collections. Try Audio Records next to Jabal Hatta Hypermarket if you want to pick up some traditional Khaleeji tunes or fancy giving lesser-known Omani artists a whirl. If you look hard enough, you’ll also find English offerings, typically sold without a track-list which makes for very interesting road trip tune-age.

Hatta Hypermarket

Jabal Hatta Hypermarket has an eclectic collection of things for sale including giant pool floats and souvenirs

Are you a bargain hunter? If so, you'll love the random finds available in Jabal Hatta Hypermarket on the Dubai-Hatta Road. Stocking everything from toys, clothes, kitchen equipment, luggage, sweets, groceries, beauty products and more, it's also got some Hatta souvenirs. Not worth a visit on its own, but definitely worth stopping by for any last-minute staycation snacks or purchases such as board games and colourful pool floats from Dh20.

See the world's largest inclined mural

The Hatta Mural depicts the UAE's founding fathers 

Perhaps the last thing you might expect to see in the middle of the Hatta mountains is some street art. But you can picnic under the world's largest inclined mural, which is a portrait of the founding fathers of the UAE. Located near Hatta Dam, guests staying in the Sedr Trailers Resort will pass the painting on their way to camp. Part of Dubai's Street Art Project, the mammoth image portrays Sheikh Zayed and Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum.

Hike to the Hatta sign

Hatta's Hollywood-style sign sits on one of the highest peaks in the Hajar Mountain range. It's visible from several spots around Hatta, thanks to its huge 60-metre tall letters. Reachable only by foot, you can trek up to the sign from Hatta Wadi Hub. It will take around 30 minutes. At nighttime, look out for the Hatta sign lit up against the night sky.

Visit Hatta Hill Park

Built in 2004, Hatta Hill Park is spread across the mountainside and is a popular spot for picnics and barbecues. There's plenty of space for children to run and play, plus running tracks and sports fields. At the highest point of the mountain park is a tower, which offers great vantage points of the surrounding Hajar Mountain range and the village.

Go birdwatching at Hatta Swan Lake

Not too far from Hatta Heritage Village is Swan Lake, a huge pond that attracts several local birds. From house sparrows and Indian silverbills to kingfishers, herons and swans, birds descend on the water to swim and feed. Bring your binoculars, sit back and relax. It's also a great place for families and picnics. Just be sure to take all your rubbish away with you and don't feed the wildlife. Entry is free and the lake is accessible 24 hours a day.

Useful things to know when planning your trip to Hatta

Where is hatta.

Hatta is located 130 km southeast of Dubai city center next to the Oman border. It takes approximately 90 minutes to reach Hatta by road. The main highways to take are Emirates Road E611 and Sharjah-Kalba Road E102.

Driving to Hatta is a scenic road trip you can add to your Dubai itinerary .

4 ways to get to Hatta from Dubai

By Car: The fastest, most flexible, and easiest way to get to Hatta from Dubai, or any other emirate, is by car. If you are visiting UAE, the best option is to rent a car (petrol in UAE is cheap: approx. AED 2 per liter). That being said, a one-way ride will cost as little as 19-27 AED. You can get a great deal on a rental car using a reliable Discover Cars booking site.

By Bus: Public buses are a less common means of transportation across the UAE, and not many people use them. However, if you have extra time to spare and are not willing to drive, a super cheap option is to take around 2.45 hours bus ride for AED 10 one way. You can check the schedule on RTA website. Bus E16 is operating daily from Sabkha Bus Station in Deira, Dubai to Hatta Bus Station. You must have NOL card to use public bus and metro services in Dubai. Note that in Hatta, you may need to catch a taxi to get to some of the locations such as Hatta Dam, or Hatta Wadi Hub as they are a few kilometers away from the bus station.

By Taxi: This is by far the costliest option out of all (unless you are coming in a helicopter). It will leave you AED 230- AED 290 short for only a one-way ride.

Tour operators: If you are short on time, and also want the trip to be fully organized for you, covering all the major sights in Hatta, then you can confidently book yourself a guided day trip. There is plenty of great half-day and full-day Hatta tours available to conveniently book with VIATOR and Tripadvisor (they also offer 24-hour free cancelation policy and hotel in Dubai pick-up).

The best places to stay in Hatta

Hatta is perfect for a day trip but if you want to immerse into nature for a little longer, you can book a comfortable overnight stay as well.

TOP 10 things to do in Hatta, UAE

1. go hiking in hatta, dubai (a guide to the hatta sign).

Hatta is the largest national park in Dubai. Therefore, one of the best things to do in Hatta is to trek the clearly marked beautiful trails winding at the foothills and wadis of the Hajar mountains .

Both beginners and experienced hikers will find their perfect route by following color-graded Hatta’s hiking trails which span a total of 32.6km. Currently, this is the longest signposted trail network in the UAE.

things to do in hatta, dubai hiking, Hatta mountain sign aerial view

The starting point of the trails is at Hatta Wadi Hub . From here you can choose your preferred route. Signboard maps are displayed at Hatta Wadi Hub and indicate the distances and difficulty level of each trail. The shortest trek is only 1km, while the longest one is 7.5km with an elevation gain of almost 800 meters above sea level.

If you are a complete beginner, start with the easiest leveled walks across green trails. Then, when confident enough, you can progress to the blue and red routes. The most experienced hikers have the more adventurous option of exploring the black trails.

Note that Hatta hiking trails intersect with each other. This allows you to create your own route that covers each level of difficulty. In my humble opinion, green trails are super easy, and suitable even for little kids as it is a simple walk without any elevation gain. Therefore, even without much hiking experience, one can still head directly to the blue trails.

The views along the trails are impressive. You will enjoy the scenery of the laid-back town of Hatta surrounded by gorgeous Hajar mountains. Those views can be seen better while trekking at higher elevation sections. While at other parts of the trails you may feel far away from civilization as you will be completely surrounded by mountains.  

Finally, when approaching Hatta, you will definitely spot a famous sign, called the “Hollywood sign of Hatta”. A couple of trekking routes can take you up there if you are curious to check it out from up close. I was keen on getting up there, therefore I am sharing a couple of options on how to hike to the Hatta Sign below.

How to hike to Hatta “Hollywood” sign?

woman hiking at hatta mountain trails with hatta hollywood sign in the background- best things to do in hatta

Option 1- a loop. Distance ~7.5km, time 2.5 hours, Max elevation 385 M. Highlights: views of Hatta town, farms, donkeys, goats, narrow mountain trails, some scrambling over the rocky hill, Hatta sign.

When I hiked to the Hatta sign, I did not start at Hatta Hub where most of people do.  Instead, after passing the Hatta roundabout with a fort in the middle, I took the first right to a side road that leads to Sheikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Dam. I parked on the road next to the bridge crossing over the earlier mentioned dam and water ponds. Google coordinates 24.814433, 56.143075.

I made my hiking route a bit more adventurous, as I skipped some sections of the marked trails. I approached the Hatta sign from its front (a usual way is reaching it from the back). Once I got close enough to the Hatta sign, I just took a shortcut and climbed the rocky hill up. On my way back down from the sign I took the dirt road which is used for carts. This dirt road is behind the Hatta sign.

My route covers bits of red, blue, and green sections of the Hatta trail network. Therefore, advisable for intermediate hikers.

best things to do in hatta- hiking hatta trails

The waypoints to follow:

  • Cross the bridge and then you can either go left or right. On your left, there is the gate to the farm. If it is open, you can just take the path crossing the farm. Alternatively, you can take the right and follow the fence of the farm until the end.
  • Look for a signpost called Asaf, Google coordinates 24.807194, 56.139144. Then head left – look for a narrow mountain trail which you have to follow. It will gradually take you higher.
  • Always keep left when following the trails. You will come across some signposts reminding you are on the marked trails. Soon you will be able to see the Hatta sign.
  • Continue walking until around this point: 24.805310, 56.146623. From here, you can just climb up the hill directly towards the sign. The climb is a little steep, with an instant elevation gain of 70 meters. However, it is not technical, just mind the loose rocks.
  • You now reached Hatta Sign. To go back, go behind the sign. You can follow the signposts of the trails- those are very scenic mountain paths. Aim toward the left-hand side, as you need to come back down. Alternatively, just take a wide dirt road used for carts- easy option but not as beautiful as the first one.
  • Once down the hill, continue straight until around this point 24.811389, 56.156569. Then turn left and follow green trails by walking parallel to the mountain. On the way, you will pass some water ponds surrounded by very high grass, as well as one smaller bridge (you have to go under it). Continue until you reach the starting point.

I have recorded this trail on Wikiloc here .

Option 2- one way. Distance (return) ~5 KM, time ~2 hours, Max elevation 385 M. Highlights: farms, donkeys, goats, narrow mountain trails, Hatta sign.

If you prefer to keep it simpler and easier, a shorter way is to start at Hatta Hub. The waypoints to follow:

  • From Hatta Hub head towards the hiking trails and start with the Green 1 trail. Continue until the signpost that says, Reem.
  • From Reem, follow the direction of the sign towards Thamaam , still on the same green 1 route.
  • Once you reach the Thamaam signpost, head left in the direction of Washq . Now you are on the green 4 route which goes through a dry river bed (wadi) but it is still an easy walk. You will soon reach a signpost called Ja’ada
  • From here follow the blue 1 route towards Qa’taa signpost. From Qa’taa you start heading uphill.
  • Once you reach Qa’taa , take the right and follow the blue 2 route towards the Dhabi signpost. You will be able to see the Hatta sign from the back when hiking. Always keep right.
  • From the Dhabi signpost continue following the blue 2 route all the way up to Wa’el – HATTA sign spot.

This route has a steep incline; however, it is not difficult. Pace yourself and you will soon reach the famous Hollywood sign of Hatta with fantastic views overlooking the mountains, bits of Hatta town, and farms.

Come back to the Hatta Hub following exact same route.

What is the best time for hiking in the Hatta mountains?

During the winter months from November to March, you can hike at any time of the day as the temperatures are mild and nice. However, in summer you must wake up as early as 4 am to reach the starting point before the crazy heats kick in. Therefore, if you are heading out for a hike in Hatta anytime from May to September, it is advisable to start very early (5 am-6 am) in the morning and stick to the shorter routes to avoid the heat. October and April are the shoulder seasons for hiking in the UAE, therefore morning and late afternoons are suitable for trekking in Hatta.

How to prepare for the hike in Hatta?

The key factors  you must always   consider when preparing for any hike in the UAE are hot summer temperatures, cold winter nights, the possibility of rain, unforgiving rough terrain, and your experience and knowledge about a similar environment.

Therefore, being well prepared for the hike will make your experience much more pleasant.

Here is my checklist of how to be prepared for hiking in UAE

  • Sufficient amount of water – crucial for any hike. For the UAE where the weather is hot all year round, take extra than you think you may need.
  • Lightweight power snacks like dates, bananas, protein bars. Also, electrolyte drink aside from water makes wander after long sweaty hours.
  • Sturdy footwear with good grip . The terrains are rough and rocky. Therefore, it is very important you are wearing shoes, ideally mid-ankle height, that has good grip, to prevent you slipping and twisting your legs. I have been hiking in my Columbia boots since I started, and I am so far happy with it.
  • Comfy and functional backpack . For a half-day hike you don’t need much supplies to fit in. Still, a backpack with a good back support and, ideally, a space for water bladder, makes a difference. Check out this Osprey backpack chich is great for day hikes.
  • Get a water bladder if you are planning to make hiking a regular acitivty. Water bladder has a straw. This means you don’t have to remove your backpack when you want to drink water. Also, water, when filled in the bladder, is evenly distributed in the backpack. I use my two or three liter camel backs (depending on how long the hike is). You can check prices here on Amazon .
  • Sunsreen, cap and sun glasses. Sun is harsh, so make sure to protect yourself.
  • Comfy sweat wicking clothes. I usually hike in gym or hiking leggings and t-shirts. For winter months, I through in a lightweight fleece as morning and evening can be chilly.
  • Hiking poles. It is not a must but very helpful for the descending part. It can be quite tough for the knees when climbing down. For the light weight foldable trekking poles check this pair at Amazon .
  • Basic first aid kit. Terrains are rough and sometimes mini injuries can happen. Even as simple as getting a blister. So having plaster for this type of emergency can really make or break your hike.
  • Power bank to keep your phone charged.
  • GPS device or a Wkiloc app with an accurate trail recording. Check Garmin GPS device on Amazon .
  • A rechargeable torchlight in case you end up hiking in the dark. If you want to keep your hands free, then a powerful rechargeable headlamp is a perfect solution.

HAVE A SAFE HIKE AND, PLEASE, KEEP THE NATURE CLEAN!

2. Explore Hatta on a mountain bike

If you love mountain cycling, Hatta is a place to go! Starting from the same before mentioned adventure park of Hatta Wadi Hub, the mountain bike trail network covers 52 km. It is color-graded according to difficulty (green-easy, blue-intermediate, red-advanced, black- experts). Note that mountain bike trails are in the same area as the hiking trails but they aren’t the same trails and have different markings. Just be aware of the hikers when riding.

On a bike, you will be able to tackle even larger grounds surrounded by beautiful landscapes of the Hatta mountains. Needless to say, it is a faster but by far more extreme way than hiking. UAE mountain terrains are rough and full of rocks to watch out for. Mountain bike trails at more advanced sections are steep, therefore, you must be experienced in maneuvering your two-wheel ride. If not, start warming up at the easiest green trails.

Highlights of the mountain trails in Hatta: along the way, you will pass farmlands, rocky hills, and natural pools, and you might even discover a few hidden oases.

Can I rent a mountain bike in Hatta?

Yes, if you don’t have your own, then you can rent a mountain bike starting at 65 AED per hour (the price depends on the size of the bike) from The Bike Shop located at the Hatta Wadi Hub complex.

3. Enjoy serene nature while kayaking at the spectacular Hatta Water Dam

Hatta is home to the photographer’s beloved gorgeous Hatta Dam which is built over a teal color lake. The fascinating water dam welcomes you to glide through its waters in a kayak. Kayaking is one of the best activities in Hatta and a great refresher from boiling desert heat during the summer months.

You can rent your single or double kayak at the Hatta Kayak rental kiosk next to the dam at a price of AED 60 (single) or AED 120 (double). You can also rent different kinds of water vehicles like water donuts and pedal boats.

Hatta kayak kiosk

Usually, there are plenty of kayaks available at Hatta Dam, but if you are going on a Friday, you may want to secure one in advance. The contact number for Hatta Kayaks is +971566162111.

  • Alternatively, you can book a full-day Hatta sightseeing tour , which includes kayaking, and other amazing stops on the way to Hatta (Showka, and Buhais geology park in Mleiha). Tour starts from Dubai (hotel pick-up available). Click here to check prices and availability.

Hatta water dam, also called Hatta Lake, is a spectacular sight on its own. Therefore, even if you are not planning to kayak, it is worth stopping by. Come during the sunset or sunrise to witness this spectacular panorama of calm teal waters set against the rough-hewn mountains.

4. See the World’s Largest Inclined Mural at Hatta Dam

A very unexpected sight in Hatta is a massive graffiti of the founding fathers of the UAE- the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and the late Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum. The huge mural was painted for the occasion of the National Day of the UAE some years back. Today it is a little faded due to the sun (hopefully it will soon get some freshen up). The mural is located at Hatta Dam parking.

Parking at Hatta Dam

There is plenty of free parking space available at the bottom of Hatta Dam where the mural is. Sometimes, in the case of a busy weekend, or events happening at the Dam (such as National Holiday), you might not be allowed to drive all the way up to the Dam’s bridge (this is where the wonderful views are revealed from). It is something to take into consideration as the road leading up is quite steep (good leg workout though).

Hatta Dam park is busy during the national holiday of UAE

For those of you who love it all organized, I recommend a half-day guided tour at Viator . It includes a kayaking and sightseeing tour of Hatta town (with hotel pick up from Dubai). Or, spend a great full day in Hatta, and see it all with Full Day Hatta Tour which includes kayaking and offers Dubai Hotel pick-up.

5. Camp under the stars in Hatta

Hatta qualifies as one of the best camping locations in the UAE for multiple reasons. There are plenty of great overnight camping spots surrounded by beautiful landscapes. Some of them are closer to civilization and even offer the convenience of having washrooms and food within reach of a hand, while some are pure wild escapes for the real nature adventurers. Another advantage is that Hatta has an access to the body of water (the dam and multiple smaller artificial lakes), which makes camping here more refreshing that just a completely dry desert.

It is advisable to camp at designated spots in Hatta. That being said, you might not be completely alone at those spots. However, you can always get a little bit more adventurous and head deeper into the mountains to find your solo pitch.

Let’s explore our options below.

Free camping at designated spots. Although there are quite a few places dedicated to camping, some of the popular ones get pretty crowded.

However, you can still find great places a little bit out of the beaten path. One great option is by the lake, which is further away from the mainstream places but still close enough to civilization. It is called BBQ and Cap Site. You can park there and pitch your tent by the lake. Note that there are no amenities like washrooms and no food trucks or shops within walking distance. Therefore, you must come prepared with your supplies. Note: this place still can get busy during the weekends.

Paid camping with amenities. If you do not fancy it too wild, there is an option to have a golden middle between being in the wilderness and having all the amenities a few steps away. Hatta Wadi Hub offers a paid campsite from AED 129 to AED 199 to pitch a tent, and AED 299 to AED 399 for a campervan at a designated camping area which allows you to use their BBQ spots, washroom, and have a few food trucks close by as well. Note: this camping spot is next to an adventure park, therefore, suits those who want to combine their stay in nature with some fun activities and do not mind a bit of a crowd as many families love to come there.

Camping in the mountains. Those of you, who are more adventurous and love the raw wilderness, can always explore your own options inside the mountains. Note that the terrain is very rocky, so you will definitely need an extra mattress for a more comfortable sleep under the stars.

Is it safe to camp in Hatta, Dubai?

The UAE being one of the safest countries in the world makes the camping experience very attractive as well. The only things to watch out for are snakes and scorpions. Although those do not attack people as many may often think, you need to watch out for your steps, especially at night when they are out and about.  

6. Go glamping at the foothills of the Hatta mountains.

For those of you who want more comfort but still stay surrounded by nature, a luxurious glamping experience with a fantastic outdoor setup would be a perfect solution. Therefore, going glamping is yet another awesome experience in Hatta, Dubai.

One of the best spots where luxury meets outdoors and does it in a uniquely stylish way is the first region’s “trailer hotel” The Sedr Trailer Resort . Nestled in the Hajar Mountains right at the banks of the mesmerizing Hatta Dam and tucked away from the streets of Hatta town, The Sedr Trailers are the perfect staycation in nature.

The resort is comprised of a selection of 13 gleaming trailers parked around a huge area amidst the mountains. Each trailer is fully equipped with the most important tools and facilities: kitchen, shower, beds, living area, and private BBQ area where you can have a bonfire under the stars.

Park entrance is free, you are welcome to come and have some great specialty coffee with fantastic views of the Hajar mountains.

Led by an experienced instructor, you will be briefed on paragliding basics before setting off for soaring the skies. For more information about this adventure, click HERE .

What is the best time to go to Hatta?

Due to its higher elevation and mountainous setup, Hatta enjoys a cooler climate than its coastal counterparts.

However, June, July, and August are extremely hot, and only mornings and evenings would be suitable for outdoor exploration in Hatta.

Remember that during the winter season, it can get pretty chilly in Hatta at night. Therefore, make sure to bring a sweater.

Going green: 10 natural spots you can visit in the UAE before it gets too hot

When the concrete jungle concrete jungle-s too much….

Contrary to popular opinion, there is much green to see in the UAE. Beyond the confines and stretches of the bustling cities, no doubt, but it is there and it may even surprise you. Natural beauty in the UAE has always been a question of sorts, with the primary naturally occurring landforms being the expansive desert. But we’re here to tell you that there is actually much more, many nature spots. Go on – take a drive, take a break and get lost in some green.

Here are 10 green natural wonders to visit in the UAE.

Al zorah natural reserve.

This lesser-known ecosystem in Ajman is made up of a tidal creek and a lush mangrove forest home to a rich variety of birdlife. Natural greenery is not that much of a common sight here, but this hidden gem is every nature lover’s dream. Mangroves are an important element of the coastline in this part of the world and you can spot nearly 60 species of birds, including the Greater Flamingo and a number of egrets and herons. If the sight of serene waters isn’t quite enough for you, and some adrenaline is the fix, you can also participate in water sports like windsurfing and kayaking.

  @ajman  

Siniyah Island

This island is just 19 kilometres away from Umm Al Quwain and is easily accessible by boat. If you’re looking to take a break from the cityscape, Siniyah Island is the spot to visit. It’ll be a fun, spontaneous road rip, and you’ll witness beautiful rolling greens and endless blues at the end of it. Like many other spots of natural beauty in the country, the island is home to several species of birds like flamingos, herons, terns and plovers to be seen from the mudflats.

visituaq.ae  

There isn’t a spot quite as naturally beautiful as  Hatta in Dubai. With its stunning views and exciting experiences, it’s a perfect spot to visit to be one with nature. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it is truly a retreat, and best enjoyed when the temperatures go down. Of course, up in the mountains, it will be delightfully cooler, so you don’t want to miss out on this chance. Camping under the stars, kayaking and more smashing adventures await.

@visit.hatta

Al Qudra Lake

If you’re looking for the perfect picnic spot, Al Qudra Lake might just be it. These artificial lakes in the heart of Dubai’s desert are best enjoyed in the cooler months when you can camp by the lakefront, take a ride down the Al Qudra Cycling track or enjoy some bites from the food trucks. It’s also a great place to spot native Dubai wildlife in their natural habitat including desert foxes, oryx, and a number of bird species including some on the endangered list, such as the steppe eagle and the Asian houbara.

@visit.dubai

Sir Baniyas Island

There’s more than one mode of transportation involved in this one, but it’s worth it (pinky promise). Sir Baniyas Island is probably the most wildlife-dense location in the country. Home to over 11,000 animals, it’s practically one giant wildlife reserve, and several endangered species such as the blackbuck antelope and Arabian oryx as well as giraffe, ostrich and cheetah call the home. It’s a step into a landscape, with lush greenery and wilderness. You can take a safari tour of the island and explore the diversity as it roams free. It’s a 25-minute boat ride from Jebel Dhanna, which itself is a two-hour drive from downtown Abu Dhabi.

@visitabudhabi

Snoopy Island

Ras al khor wildlife sanctuary.

This wetland reserve is closer to you than you think – right by the Dubai Creek – and is the perfect spot to visit to observe some 20.000 birds, mammals, fish and exotic plants in their element, and of course, all the greenery. There is a plethora of flora and fauna for you to explore and you can bring along your binoculars to spot migratory and residents birds displaying a dazzling assortment of colors, sizes, shapes and behaviors through three bird hides for bird watching at strategic locations.Entrance is free and there are binoculars available to borrow, too. It’s an ideal escape – not too far and with exciting things to do.

Jebel Ali Wildlife Sanctuary

Another wetland reserve, the Jebel Ali wildlife sanctuary consists of stunning mangroves, 2,000 hectares of wetland including the Ghantoot Marine Reserve, a coastal and marine area of coral reefs, mangroves, seagrass beds and sandy beaches. You’ll find over 300 endangered species here, including the critically endangered hawksbill turtle, the mottled eagle ray, green turtle, Arabian gazelle, foxes, lizards and a variety of water birds. To visit the reserve you can join one of their turtle releases, BBQs, mangrove plantings or clean-ups.

Al Qurm Nature Reserve

Another stunning UAE nature spot to marvel at a natural mangrove forest is the Al Qurm Nature Reserve, which you’ll find at Kalba on the southern outskirts of Kalba village, on Sharjah’s east coast. The 500-hectare park of protected mangroves is home to species such as Arabian-collared kingfishers and hawksbill and green turtles. Enjoy guided kayak tours or go paddle-boarding around the area.

Jubail Mangrove Park

The stunning Jubail Mangrove Park in Abu Dhabi is an absolute must-visit for nature-seekers. A huge boardwalk will take visitors on a nature trail through the natural landscape of mangroves near Yas Island and, take it from us, it’s amazing. As well as the stunning nature walk, there’s loads of activities for the whole family to get involved in such as guided boardwalk tours, kayak trips, and e-canoe tours of the mangroves.
