Best picnic spot in Hatta farm house

 

It is located behind old mosque closed to heritage village. Hatta located relatively high in the Hajar Mountainsnear Oman. it lies to the south-east of Dubai's main territory. Since the early 1980s, Hatta has been a popular destination for adventuring expatriates and local families alike 'wadi bashing'. It has a popular Heritage Village. Hatta is a picturesque 115 km drive east of Dubai City.

 

 The old village of Hatta includes two prominent military towers from the 18th century. This picnic spot located just left side of watch tower and heritage village.

 

Very quiet area to spend wonderful time with family and friends.

 Great spot for a picnic! Park by the top and go down with a picnic basket in the late afternoon for the sunset. Peaceful and beautiful! Small canal full of water for irrigation. You will find small fishes around the ponds.

 

How to reach Hatta - Crossing the border was denied, despite of having valid passports and UAE id's. to access but only if you take the direct route number 5. You can take the Shwaka , Sharjah kalba road and then access it through the mountain valley but that would take you a hour more. It is a new road through mountains.

The mountains suddenly raise from the desert - immediately after Khatham if you are going from Dubai. Since it was December, the weather was wonderful and we enjoy the crisp mountain breeze

Views from Hatta dam at the top is simply amazing. Must see if you are nature lover.
