MASFOUT

Masfout is a summer retreat for residents of Ajman city; its elevated altitude and distance from the city offer cooler climes and a fresh breeze, making it a welcome escape from the oppressive heat of the warmer months. Human activity in the area has been traced back more than 5,000 years thanks to archaeological finds, including an ancient rock carving – a depiction of which is at Ajman Museum

Discover the rugged landscape of the Hajar Mountains – a hiker's dream and a refreshing escape from the city heat.



Less than two hours away from the city centre is the tiny Ajman enclave of Masfout . Taking the Dubai-Hatta Road will involve a couple of checkpoints as the road passes through an Oman outpost, so take your passport with you; alternatively, use the Sharjah-Kalba Road. Both routes pass through some fantastic rolling dunes before reaching the peaceful foothills of the Hajar Mountains.
