Why it's worth the trip

A peaceful viewpoint near the top of Jebel Hafeet with sweeping views over Al Ain, at the end of one of the world's great driving roads. Sunrise and sunset are spectacular.

About this place

Drive the famous winding road up Jebel Hafeet and stop at this lookout for jaw dropping views of Al Ain and the desert beyond. It's calm, free and especially magical at sunrise. Bring a jacket in winter, since it's noticeably cooler up top.

بالعربي

شاهد الشروق من ثاني أعلى قمة في الإمارات.

إطلالة هادئة قرب قمة جبل حفيت بمناظر واسعة على العين، في نهاية واحد من أعظم طرق القيادة في العالم. الشروق والغروب مذهلان.

قُد على الطريق المتعرج الشهير صعوداً إلى جبل حفيت، وتوقّف عند هذه الإطلالة لمناظر مذهلة على العين والصحراء من خلفها. هادئة ومجانية، وساحرة بشكل خاص عند الشروق. أحضر سترة في الشتاء، فالجو أبرد بوضوح في القمة.
