Jabel Hafeet Mountain

I recently visited Jebel Hafeet Mountain near Al Ain, and it was an unforgettable experience. The drive up the winding road was thrilling, offering stunning views at every turn. At the summit, the panoramic vistas of Al Ain city and the surrounding desert were breathtaking, especially during sunset. The area is well-equipped with viewing platforms and picnic spots, making it ideal for families and photographers. Nearby, the Green Mubazzarah park, with its natural hot springs and lush lawns, provided a perfect place to relax. Jebel Hafeet’s combination of natural beauty, thrilling drives, and historical significance makes it a must-visit destination. Whether you're seeking adventure or tranquility, this mountain has something for everyone.

A must go place. Pretty windy on the top, can spend hours without knowing time going by. It’s a nice scenic drive up the mountain.

Jabel Hafeet is one of the highest points in the UAE and the primary viewpoint for watching the city of Al Ain from the "eagle eye" view. The road is excellent but curvy and steep. There are only a few activities you can do on the peak of the hillside except to enjoy the spectacular view and wind breeze. Some viewpoints have toilets but are closed/locked. Drive safe and have extra focus.

"Jabal Hafeet exceeded my expectations in every way! The breathtaking views from the summit are unparalleled, offering a serene escape from the hustle and bustle. The well-maintained facilities, friendly staff, and seamless visitor experience make it a must-visit destination. Whether you're a nature enthusiast or simply looking for a peaceful retreat, Jabal Hafeet delivers an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a memorable adventure in a stunning natural setting."

Took the long winding route up to the top, late in the afternoon, to catch the sunset. Winding route, speed limits for a reason, watch the hikers … but absolutely worth the drive if you love SUNSETS! Carry a jacket from mid Autumn till early Spring. It gets COLD 🥶
