WADI DARBAT (وادي دربات)

It is a popular, crowded place during the khareef (monsoon season) and a great place to enjoy the jebel in any season. Wadi Darbat is a grassy plateau in the hills marked by Oman’s largest natural permanent lake. This is the source of the estuary that flows into Khor Rori, and...

AYN ATHUM (شلالات عين اثوم)

We gave a last chance to the waterfall in the Dhofar region. Of course, it was logically dry. But at least we drove through lovely scenery. Just before reaching a spring, a small car park appears on the right-hand side of the road, and a paved path disappears mysteriously into the wooded...

AYN KHOR (شلال عين كور)

This waterfall belongs to the many waterfalls that appear during the monsoon period. The source of the fall is located in the highest mountain at Wadi Jardum. It was not accessible by our truck, so for the last 2,5 kilometers, we walked in the dry river belt. It really appears only from...

AIN GARZIZ (عين جرزيز)

We took Ittin Road to spend the night next to one of the most visited springs flowing from Salalah’s foothills. Ain Garziz often has a generous flow of water collecting at the bottom of the knotted cliffs. However, it’s an exciting site with stunted fig trees and limestone...

WADI NAHIZ (وادي نحيز)

Wadi Nahiz is about 31 km drive from Dhareez Beach in Salalah. It remains off the radar for most of the tourists, and that was why we decided to explore the valley. There is a steep descent for about a 10-minute drive from the top to the bottom of the valley. We parked 200 meters behind...

GALI ALI BEG (,گەلیی عەلی بەگ)

We stopped overnight by the „touristic“ Geli Ali Beg waterfall (🎫 1000 IQD). It is the highest waterfall in the Kurdistan Region and all of Iraq. It is about 12 meters high, located beside Korek Mount, which is 2,076 meters above sea level. The waterfall is the crosspoint of three rivers:...

MIRUSHA WATERFALLS (Ujëvarët e Mirushës)

Again, don’t trust Google navigation, as usually, it’s totally wrong 😊. We walked around 200 meters to the Mirusha waterfalls from our parking location. It is a series of waterfalls found in the Mirusha Park, in central Kosovo, where the river has carved a 10 kilometers long canyon...

VØRINGSFOSSEN

Vøringsfossen is Norway’s best-known waterfall – the water thundering down the mountainside in a free fall of 145 meters and with a total fall of 182 meters. Once we have reached the high mountain plateau, we experienced a stunning panorama. The valley of Måbødalen, even in bad weather...
