Traveling is commonly known for visiting the cities, Bazars, Beaches, and amusement parks, etc. It is considered for taking pleasure only. The other side of this incomplete definition is different. We add adventurous activities in travel to keep it full of life and enjoyment. Let us explore the aspects of adventurous holidays in this blog. I will also suggest you the top amazing trekking trails if you love Middle-east for traveling.

For westerners like us, it is a great privilege traveling to Middle-east that we don’t have to face any hassle during our whole trip. People welcome us as so special guests and friends of the Middle-east.

I have seen a lot of travel companies run by non-brits a wonderful package of adventures in many countries. Recently, along with December Umrah Packages, a company was having several trekking trips and luxury holidays in their offers. This is the right time to look at the availability and go on the outbeaten treks in the world. I suggest you explore the Arab world.

Find The Best Trails in the Arab World:

Listing down the top best treks in the middle-east means giving you an overview of the trip you are going to opt for in near future. Follow the mentioned places and add them to your top places to visit list.

There are two types of treks. Long and short, I’m adding both types to give you a mixed experience.

Ihlara Valley Trek in Turkey:

Better to start from Turkey. If already planned, and if you still don’t know about the trekking valley, add the Ihala Trek to your ‘destinations’ list. This green valley is mostly called ‘The Pearl of Cappadocia’. You could have planned the metropolitans and coffees, dinners on the top-notch cafes and restaurants in the main cities. Visiting the out beaten destination like Ihlara valley would give you a very different experience.

You will find the ultimate natural and very scenic views in the valley to get soothe in your life. The valley doesn’t have a one trekking trail, you will find four different ways to enter to the trail to have a whole day trekking. The trails are of different distances. You should choose the trail out of four to see which better suits you. Surprise for you, which is no more a surprise in fact is that you will find several traditionally decorated churches. Now up to your exploration skills. Get to the place and explore it your way.

Dubai Hosts you at Shawka Dam Loop:

Are you planning your holidays in Dubai in near future? Yes, the states are known for their seven areas of sand, shopping malls, and a full package of luxury holidays. People from the west visit and enjoy their holidays especially when they get time from schools and offices. Dubai is a luxury holiday destination, but also an adventurous place.

Let me introduce you to Shawka Dam Loop, a stunning recreational destination in Dubai. It is located in the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, not so far from your hotel, I guess. This place will bring you inner peace when you will visit this place in the winter season. Monsoon is also a very famous season among the travelers to visit Dubai and especially the travelers who are looking for waters on the adventurous destinations. Shawka Pools are the best places visited by travelers. What I can say about the place is that it can bring you the best scenic views along with the greenery all around. The Green Palm trees are famous helping you ease your nerves with their smoothy waving with the breeze.

Jebel Shams Trekking Trail – Oman:

Visiting Oman is the best idea if you require the ultimate pleasure from the holiday destination. But Oman is less known for his heights and trekking trails. Your privilege is that Oman is not that far and allows you to have a diverse holiday experience. It is situated in the western Hajar Mountains, a very ideal place.

Jebel Shams is known as the highest peak in Oman having more than one hiking trails. Multiple hiking tracks means if one gives you a tough time, the other would be comparatively easy to ride. Travelers recommend the others to go with the W4 track and cites it easy and more comfortable for a 1-day hiking plan. It makes almost 11 kilometers to hike, up to you if you want to complete them in a day or 2.

Dana to Petra – Jordan:

This hiking trail is a bit tough and okay to go for the travelers who are used to trek the long distances. Nearly 75km track gives a person a week to complete a round in Dana to Petra trails.

This trail is full of scenic views, dramatic valleys, amazing vistas, surprise springs, and untouched villages. You will also be exposed to the historical end of Jordan during your trekking experience in the Dana to Petra hike.
