Itinerary description

Short walk upto the Green Mountain in Abha.

Green Mountain is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Abha, Saudi Arabia, and a must-visit site for people visiting the city. It was initially used as military headquarters because of its strategic location and was later turned into a tourist destination.

Green Mountain Abha is one of the most well-liked tourist attractions of Saudi Arabia, that provides visitors from all over the world with breathtaking sights. In Arabic, the mountain is also called "Jabal Thera" after the emerald radiance that surrounds its peak. The light can be seen for miles around.

Apparently the restaurants at the top are closed since Covid.
The Abha ropeway has the starting point station here that goes next to Abha High City and further.
