Inclusions

Itinerary

1. We will start driving from Jeddah at 9:30 AM for an hour up north to the moon valley on Asfan Road towards the University of Jeddah, after which you will reach a village from where your hiking destination will be just 25 minutes away. To reach the valley, you will need a 4x4 vehicle since the terrain is generally sandy and rocky.

   1 h

2. Moon Valley is located approximately 120 kilometers from Jeddah city. It has the best desert views and rock formations for hiking that resemble pictures of the moon’s surface. The valley atmosphere is proper for a mediation session and connects better to nature (Bring your mat). We will start heading back to the city after we take our last break in the Valley (Beverages & snacks are provided). Travel time back to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia is 1 hour.

• 5Great views

  The moon valley has some spectacular views and the hike up the mountain was fun. Good communication and the guide was in time and everything went as planned even though the booking was the day before.

• 5Quick jaunt out of the city

  Great little excursion to get out of the city for a bit and see the natural landscapes and interesting rock formations. Short scramble up and down but very happy to have had the opportunity to do it. Mohammed was very kind and everything was done at my pace and helped take a bunch of fun photos for me.

• 5Sunset hike and tea under the stars

  I had a great time on this hike. The sunset view from the top was incredible. Everything was so quiet and peaceful. Abdallah really looked after me. He made sure I was ok up and down the mountain, took lots of pictures and made me tea at the end of the hike. And by that time it was dark so we drank our tea under the stars. The communication I received from Abha Trips before the hike was excellent. They kept me informed about the pickup and guide details.

  Excellent experience and very enjoyable picked up from hotel at 5am for sunrise trip. Walk was generally straightforward in trainers though a bit of a scramble at top,ably helped by guide Maher who was really helpful. Lovely sunrise and no one else but us were there

About Jeddah

Jeddah, on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia, is an old trading port and the gateway to Mecca, with a historic district of coral-stone houses.

Jeddah has been a port on the Red Sea since ancient times, and a landing point for pilgrims travelling to Mecca, which lies to the east. Al-Balad, its old quarter and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, preserves tall coral-stone houses with carved wooden balconies, called roshan, and narrow lanes, and the souks around them still trade in spices, textiles and perfume.
