Itinerary description
The road is not very challenging to drive, from the technical perspective, but you will see some nice landmarks on the way. The path to the Dam is all new tarmac and easy to follow. However, once you want to continue to travel you will find it a little bit tricky. The main idea is to follow the route down to Al Mazari, the small village you can see at the base of the Dam. Follow the road until you see a shop on the left side and then after about 50 m the road will bend right. After 200 m more take right and cross Wadi Dayqah. Follow sign for Al Husn and then at the sign for Al Dhahir go straight ahead and enter offroad section (don't take right). After 4.5 km, don't take right to Al Ya and keep straight. After few more kilometers, you will enter again a tarmac section, but no for too long. And later the fun will start, with some nice offroading sections and a nice view in the village of As Silayfi. Go down the switchbacks and enter Wadi Al Abryyin. On your way to Dibab, you should see some nice natural pools and also cross through water several times. Nice one!
