Al Baha is one of the best places in the kingdom for camping lovers with its dense forests, high mountains, pleasant weather, and starlit skies.
Al Baha’s rains can be sporadic. It is advisable to pack an extra tarp and ponchos. Avoid valley floors as they are prone to flooding. Check the local supermarkets along the highway if you feel short of supplies.
A family-friendly camping spot, it is the kind of place the reignites your passion for nature situated mere kilometers from Al Baha’s city center.
This isolated mountain brings in a quiet that is only -and rarely- interrupted by passing cars. It is ideal for wild camping with its striking scenery of jagged cliffs and deep precipices filling the horizon. Scramble over the rocks until you find that perfect spot to encamp!
The northeastern city of Tabuk has long been a resting point for Jordanian and Egyptian pilgrims, with a rich Bedouin culture that can be felt in the bustling Souq Twaheen, which still supplies patterned rugs and goat-hair tent covers for modern nomads.
The port of Yanbu, just a few hours’ drive west of Medina, is really two distinct cities: the new city to the south, with its oil refineries and plants, and the old town to the north, an ancient spice route staging post where T.E. Lawrence lived.
