Jebel Akhdar

Jebel Akhdar (Green Mountain) is one of the Sultanate’s most popular destinations for residents and visitors, thanks to its diverse options for relaxation, hiking and visiting cultural sites. The region features sumptuous resorts, spectacular scenery as far as the eye can see and a wealth of opportunities to shop for locally made handicrafts or visit centuries-old villages and historical building to learn about Oman’s rich history.

Jebel Akhdar is located 150 km from Muscat. The range is mostly desert, but at higher altitudes, the famed Damask rose flourishes, along with shrubs, trees, and orchards of apricots, pomegranates and walnuts.

Jebel Akhdar is also home to Diana’s Point, a site with a spectacular panoramic view that the late Princess Diana enjoyed when she visited Oman in 1986.

Along with top-tier accommodations and natural beauty that attracts visitors from across the world, the area also features souks and heritage sites in the cities including Nizwa, Bahla and Ebri, along with ancient landmarks such as Nizwa Fort, Jabreen Castle and Bahla Fort.
