Canyon Walks & Rose Terraces

Rising high above the desert plains, Jabal Akhdar is a verdant haven famed for its terraced rose gardens and dramatic canyon landscapes. Begin your morning with a private guided trek along the Saiq Plateau, where winding paths reveal sweeping views of deep ravines, terraced orchards, and centuries-old stone villages. Visit a family-run rose farm where you witness the artisanal distillation of rosewater during bloom season. Inhale the scent of Rosa damascena as your host explains age-old techniques used to extract fragrance. Continue to hidden viewpoints and shaded groves ideal for an al fresco brunch, complete with mountain honey, local cheese, and saffron tea. Luxury in Jabal Akhdar is found in simplicity, silence, and connection to the land. With every step, the cool air, shifting light, and mountain silence ground you in nature’s rhythm—an experience of pure alpine elegance.
