The UAE has become a health and fitness destination in its own right, appealing to visitors who want to stay active while discovering the country’s diverse natural and manmade beauty. For many, it’s also a chance to become immersed in every day UAE life. Here are our top five picks of fitness experiences worth a try.
Al Qudra Cycling Track
A popular destination with adventure seekers and fitness enthusiasts alike, this 86km cycle track promises amazing views of the desert and the chance to catch a glimpse of local wildlife – including the Arabian oryx. Whether you’re a professional or novice rider, it’s an experience not to be missed, particularly at sunrise and sunset. There are rest stations and restrooms along the way if you need to take a break and the Trek UAE bike shop, located at the end of Al Qudra Road, is a great place to rent your bike.
