Ras Al Khaimah’s new Jebel Jais Observation Deck, due to open in October, to pique active adventurers’ interest.
Ras Al Khaimah, the region’s fastest-growing tourism destination, is upping the ante in its quest to be the Middle East’s adventure tourism capital with a new observation deck close to the summit of Jebel Jais, the UAE’s highest peak, which rises 1,934 metres above sea level.
Being developed by Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority (RAKTDA), which manages, regulates and promotes the emirate’s tourism industry, the Jebel Jais Observation Deck will boast a series of viewing platforms to experience the aweinspiring vistas, bird life, flora and fauna of the emirate’s Al Hajar Mountain range, which borders Oman.
In addition to several viewing platforms, the Jebel Jais Observation Deck will serve as a base camp for hikers and bikers looking to test themselves on the rugged mountain range. The facility, which will also feature a multi-purpose events arena, picnic areas, numerous walking paths and a dedicated food truck zone, is due to open to the public in October.
