in Jebel Shams
Oman's Grand Canyon — thousand-metre gorges, cliff-edge hiking trails, and a night sky so clear it feels unreal.
Travel better in Jebel Shams with the right person

Go deeper

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Camping Etiquette
Wild camping is legal but respect the mountain. Pack out all rubbish, don't disturb wildlife, and keep noise down after dark. Omani families camp here on weekends — be a good neighbour.
Photography
The canyon and trails are fair game, but ask before photographing any Omanis you meet. Shepherds and their families live in the mountains — respect their privacy.
Full detail — itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety — is in the Jebel Shams travel guide.
