Head back
Journey back in time with us to the era when Bedouins traversed the mountains of Asir with their caravans. This summer, we're thrilled to explore the trails of Gurun, the oldest route in Soudah Mountain, located in the stunning region of Abha, Southwestern Saudi Arabia.
This hidden gem boasts moderate weather year-round, with summer temperatures rarely exceeding 25°C (77°F). Our adventure begins at Mosque Gurun, where we honor those who walked this path before us.
