Best picnic spot in Hatta farm
house
It is located behind old mosque
closed to heritage village. Hatta located relatively high
in the Hajar Mountains
near 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.
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.
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.
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.
