Al Rabi Mountain trail
~5.5km round trip (not circular)
1.5 to 2.5 hours (depending on pace & breaks taken)

So this has to be one of the easier hikes to do here in the UAE, but one with elevation gain that rewards you with some stunning views

Trail path are clearly marked with mostly gravel path. There some stairs setup too when the way up gets a bit daunting

As you climb higher, the views of the city end are stunning. You also get to see the port view mid-way; and the beach view is only visible once you reach the first peak summit, which is the ultimate reward for all the hard work climbing up!

trail path are narrow & only 1 person can walk at a time. Be careful if u have ppl coming frm the other end.. give them way & then move in ur direction

Also - area btwn first & second peak is bushy & we had a few snake sightings. Not sure if harmful but better safe then sorry

there are no lights on the trail, but descending from first peak after dark is doable if done with caution. The views of the city side are amazing and worth it.
