Itinerary description
Steep but moderate hike until the ridge. I made the mistake of trying to reach the summit over the crags rising from the ridge. Instead, cut inside with the crags on your left and there is a better line to follow (see photo 4) which will take you up through the crags to the summit. Scrambling required at times with a couple of tricky points. Great views over Jebel Shems and Kawr massif and the Empty Quarter. Couple of scrambles needed on descent. No markings on the route, but on the descent you can see where others have walked.

Hey Thomas, thanks for the route. When you say 'the crags on your left' do u mean walk to the right of the crags and keep them on your left or walk to the left of the crags? Cheers!
No worries. Yes, walk to the right of the crags and keep them on your left. You make a slight descent, before ascending again through a gully. Hope this helps.
Thanks!
