Itinerary description
A very easy trail that starts down near Rafisah dam all the way up to Al Suhub rest area. The path is so clear all the way to the top, so the maps are not mandatory since you won't get lost. We went there a couple of days after the rain so parts of the trail were washed off but still clear and easy to follow.
According to the recording it was showing 3+ hours but it could be done in much less time. It's just we were walking around a lot especially at the top near the rest area and the view point in the middle of the way. The rest area was closed when we reached due to rainfall damages that happened to the parking, so there were some roadworks in progress, but we were just walking around the place and enjoying the view from the top.
Of course any car can reach the starting point. You can either park down where we started the hike cuz we were enjoying the water flowing down from the dam before merging to the actual path or you can park up at the main area next to the main road near the kayaking and activities spot.
There are many benches on the way since it's a family friendly trail. The only thing that ruined the views were the high voltage power lines surrounding the area.
