This trail can be started from 3 different points. It will be helpful for fellow hikers to understand the trail.

Masfout is a small village situated in the emirate of Ajman but located geographically near Hatta. This picturesque village is surrounded by the southern region of Ras Al Khaimah, the Dubai enclave of Hatta, and Oman.

Jebel Al Abyadh, aptly named the "White Mountain" – a prominent peak in the Masfout area.

The trail attains a maximum elevation of approximately 600m, offering breathtaking views of Jebel Al Abyadh mountain, the Masfout village, and the neighboring mountains of Hatta, RAK throughout the hike.

This is a generally well laid and visible trail.

The trail includes some steep ascents and descents, as well as sporadic loose rocks, contributing to its moderate rating.

On ur way when moving from 1st summit towards the 2nd summit, there are few areas with exposed parts which are definitely not for the persons with fear of heights.
Otherwise a very good hike with lots of wavy type trail, ups and downs giving you a good amount of workout, elevation gain and good views of the area.
