Description

Hatta, an enchanting inland enclave of the Emirate of Dubai, was once part of Oman until it was handed over to Dubai in 1850. Nestled within the majestic Hajar Mountains, Hatta is a haven for adventure lovers, boasting undulating peaks and valleys that are perfect for hiking. One of the region's most iconic landmarks is the Hatta Dam, a stunning sight surrounded by towering mountains, making it one of the largest and most picturesque dams in the area. Hatta is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a variety of activities like hiking, kayaking, and mountain biking. As part of your adventure, we’ll take you to explore the charming Heritage Village and the scenic Hatta Hills Park. Don’t miss the serene Swan Lake, a small picturesque lake where graceful swans glide across the waters. For thrill-seekers, the Hatta Wadi Hub is the ultimate adventure playground, with exciting activities such as the Hatta Ride Hub, Gel Ball, tube sliding, zorbing, archery, and football zorbing.

See Hatta from the water with a trip on Hatta Dam. Shockingly blue and surrounded by jagged mountain creeks, this is the ideal place . Hire a kayak, pedal boat or water bike and work up a sweat as you soar across the azure surface. Or book a tour boat with a driver who’ll fill you in on fascinating facts about the region.

Built in 2004, Hatta Hill Park is spread across the mountainside and is a popular spot for picnics and barbecues. There's plenty of space for children to run and play, plus running tracks and sports fields. At the highest point of the mountain park is a tower, which offers great vantage points of the surrounding Hajar Mountain range and the village.

The Hatta Heritage Village is popular with tourists who want to see the not too distant past of life in the Emirates. This restored traditional village is one of the oldest in the country, dating back to about the third century BC. Carefully reconstructed stone houses and water wells sit among two watchtowers, a traditional majlis and a fort. There’s also a nice collection of old photographs detailing traditional life in Hatta, a basket-weaving area and a museum space showcasing old tools and weapons. The Al Sharia palm tree farm next door has a great example of the ancient falaj irrigation system

Not too far from Hatta Heritage Village is Swan Lake, a huge pond that attracts several local birds. From house sparrows and Indian silverbills to kingfishers, herons and swans, birds descend on the water to swim and feed. Bring your binoculars, sit back and relax.

Dubai once different

If you want to get to know Dubai from another side, you should definitely take this tour to HATTA. Hiking, climbing mountains , sporting activities from climbing wall to zipline. Getting there with my tour guide was very interesting. He took his time, took me to the dam. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name. But thank you very much I felt very comfortable. Sylvia
