Jabel Shams



With our remaining day in Muscat, we checked out Jabel Shams, Oman's grand canyon.  I think we were all a bit worried as our driver booked it up the dirt zig-zag mountain road to reach the top at 10,000ft, but the white knuckles were worth it, the sight was amazing.  My photos do not do this place justice, it was truly amazingly huge.  We all vowed to return one day during the rainy season so that we could trek, rather than ride to the top.

Stay tuned to hear the last of the Omani saga- the trip to the southlands....
