Right from taming the rugged mountainous terrains in a bike to propelling the waves in a kayak, the mountain city of Hatta is one of the must visit places in UAE for adventure buffs. Skirted by the Hajar Mountain range the town of Hatta is with its undulating peaks and trenches making it an ideal destination for hiking and sightseeing. As you trek along the winding valleys on the foothills of Hajar mountain bordering Oman, you can feast your eyes on the shifting vistas formed by the sandy stretches, turquoise water bodies and roughhewn mountains with occasional wildlife sightings.
One of the biggest draws of Hatta city is Hatta Heritage Village which is a restored museum housing relics and documents of a true Emirati life in the earliest times. The museum comprises 30 buildings including huts, houses, a mosque and a fort that you can get to see in a walking tour round the village. Hatta offers a fair range of activities that include kayaking in the tranquil waters of Lake Hatta, trying a hand in archery or axe throwing, freefall jumps, downhill carting and trekking. After a whole day of sightseeing and activities, put up a tent under the starry sky and enjoy overnight camping along with a sumptuous barbeque dinner.
