Additionally, the initiative aligns with Oman’s long-term strategy to diversify its tourism offerings.

The goal is to protect the area’s natural beauty while fostering tourism in a responsible and sustainable manner.

Ultimately, these mountain trails represent an exciting new chapter for adventure tourism in Dhofar.
