Itinerary description
Mt. Al Rabi is in Khorfakkhan, which is part of Sharjah. This place is surrounded by mountains from 3 side and one side by Sea.
Important point is:
1. Long term Parking is available at base of mountain.
2. Short term parking is available little up from where actual hiking starts.
3. No provision for Lavatory, so….
4. When U start climbing at one point after 1 min climb one way goes from ur right and another from left. If you take left route then can cover both peak. But from right side you can do only one peak. It’s not that u cannot do the 1st peak. But the climb is bit steep.
5. *****TRACKING MUST. If wanna carry walking stick then better.

An easy hike going up. Just steep, but not tricky. However going back it seems they’re still working on the path. That is quite tricky with loose rocks and gravel. Going back I suggest you try to the right path at the intersection, as opposed to the left path. Although I haven’t tried that yet.
