The Hidden Oasis hike is a popular trail in UAE located in the Hajar Mountains of Ras Al Khaimah near Jebel Jais. It leads to a secluded, green area with palm trees and terraced fields, particularly lush during the winter after seasonal rainfall. We will start the hike from foothills of Jabel Jaise and gradually ascending towards the Hidden Oasis. After spending some time there we will come back on the same track to our starting point. Total time will be approximately 5 hours and the distance will be 8kMs. Please be on time. Starting early morning is very crucial to avoid mid day heat. Since I'm getting 40 in the same week, I'm happy to celebrate my birthday with my fellow Offroaders in the mountains.
