Itinerary description

In spring, the alkhozama or lavender flowers make a magnificent show in the desert. Every year, the location changes with the will of God. This year, the show is east of Majmaah and west of the Dahna dunes. The reddish-blue flowers are an open sea stretched as far as the eye can see.

It’s about a 3-hour drive from Riyadh. These pictures are from Jan 28, 2024, and it’s unpredictable how long it will last.
