A new hiking trail will be available for adventure enthusiasts in Dubai starting June 20. Located in Mushrif National Park, this nearly 10km-long mountain trail will be accessible to the public free of charge year-round, as announced by Dubai Municipality on June 11.
The trail offers two options: an 8.3km yellow recreational track suitable for beginners and a 1.4km orange sports track designed for skilled athletes with higher levels of fitness and endurance.
To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, it is important to adhere to the following eight rules:
- Carry an adequate supply of drinking water and wear appropriate clothing, footwear, and safety gear for hiking.
- Children between the ages of 12 and 15 may use the tracks when accompanied by an adult.
- Respect trail etiquettes and follow instructions provided on the signage boards.
- Yield to cyclists on the mountain bike trail within Mushrif Park by giving them the right of way.
- Walk in the designated direction of the trail, avoiding walking in the opposite direction.
- Stay on the designated track and refrain from straying off the designated path.
- Choose the appropriate track level based on your skill and fitness level. The orange track is intended for skilled athletes with higher endurance.
- Avoid cooking, smoking, camping, or staying overnight in the forest after completing the hike.
Mushrif National Park has previously established mountain bike tracks and a 50km professionals' track. The skills area is divided into three tracks: green for beginners, blue for intermediates, and red for professional mountain bikers.
