All experiences in Ras Al Khaimah

Ras Al Khaimah has the terrain the rest of the country lacks. Jebel Jais rises above 1,900 metres, and the drive up its switchbacks ends at a viewing deck, a mountain restaurant and the longest zipline on record.

Ras Al Khaimah guide

The adventure cluster on Jebel Jais covers the zipline, a via ferrata, a bike track down the mountain and a sledder ride. Temperatures at the summit run roughly 10 °C cooler than the coast, which makes RAK a genuine option in shoulder season. Back at sea level, the emirate keeps long, quiet beaches, a mangrove-lined lagoon and the abandoned pearling village of Al Jazirah Al Hamra — the most complete surviving example of a pre-oil coastal settlement in the country. RAK is 60–75 minutes from Dubai, which makes a long day trip workable, though the mountain rewards an overnight.
