Overview

Jebel Shams is the highest mountain in Oman. Its name is popularly given to the whole area. The narrow and deep gorge is one of the top places to visit in Oman, often called the Arabian Grand Canyon.

It is difficult to capture how impressive it is, but below is my guide to help you plan your visit: road, views and the Balcony walk.
