AL HADA MOUNTAIN

High up above the valley that runs towards the holy city of Makkah, lies the majestic Al Hada Mountain, home to scintillating natural views, beautiful rose fields and baboons. Boasting of winding camel paths and flanked by the ancient Wadi floors, along with the Hijazi style Al Kar Tourist Village, the mountain is home to the country’s longest cable car, which runs from its peak all the way to the valley floor.

Al Hada is a mountain road that connects Al Hada city to the other cities of the Makkah Region. It's considered one of the most important and beautiful mountain roads in the region that offers enchanting views to visitors. The mountain road is like an old zig-zagging camel trail dotted with playful baboons and rose farms.

It stands more than two thousand eight hundred meters above sea level and is covered with dense greenery. A variety of wildlife species like Arabian tigers inhabit the Al-Hada Mountains. Built on the Hijaz mountains slopes in the city of Al Hada, this highway is passed by travelers going to Taif.

It is famed for its breathtaking views, mountain landscapes, and cool climate. Visitors can relax in the lap of nature, visit lush green gardens, or go walking, climbing, and exploring the mountains. There is a cable car service that connects the lowlands of the mountain to the peak.
